Lyrics
At times I feel all alone, and hope just slips away.
But still .. you make your Presence known at times that I'm afraid.
The pain of being out of love .. comes when I've denied
Your present help sent from above ..
that keeps me through the night.
I need to follow as before when strength was ever sure ..
.. in faithfulness. (But you know Lord .. at times I'm insecure)
I beg of You .. prepare my heart .. and lift me when I fail.
I don't remember who You are, and that's why I rebel.
But still You speak at times when I .. know I'm far away ..
And You say to me ..
"If you want LIFE .. and Peace down inside ..
then in My love .. ABIDE !"
