I have felt pressure, I have known pain;
The darkening sun, The advancement of rain;
The drops of doubt, The sting of fear;
The awful regrets, The loss of ones dear;
And I have wondered, The reasons why;
The pangs of pain sting, And the woes of hearts cry;
But then I remembered, The awakening within;
The dawning of love, The forgiveness of sin;
And I came to accept, And to understand;
That all of our days, Are held in God's hands;
The good and the bad, The struggles, the strife;
Are all building blocks, A composite of life;
For it is the passions, The pains, the chagrin;
That have made me seek light, To find hope once again!
