How does it feel
Alone in your corner
Hiding your face
Away from the world
I know that your heart
hurts beyond words
Unbearable pain
choked the life out of you
It’s safer here
Away from all eyes
Will you ever find the pieces
of your broken heart
Amongst the vague glimpses
of a future that awaits
When pain ruled your life
You have decided to listen
to darkness within
Drifting further and further away
from your King
Why let darkness decide your destiny?
Holding on to pain
While you possess so much greatness within
So many gifts lay barren
You don’t even know they exist
Clinging to dead things
Dying little by little
Overcome by what life handed to you
Why give darkness
so much power?
Come out of the corner
My child
Step into My light
Let My presence infiltrate
every part of your heart
My glorious light will empower you
Your face will tell a new story
of hope and of mountain moving faith
Let your mouth sing of
My kindness and love
Let your feet dance
To the rhythm of only My voice
Together we will overcome every obstacle
Standing in your way
Mountains we will move
Oceans we will cross
Visit uncharted territories discovered by few
You will leap
You will dance
You will sing a new song
Of a God who turned around
every tragedy for your good
Step out My child
Many captives are waiting
Go to the outskirts
The ghettos
The cities
Be My container of love
Invade every weary soul
Bring healing to every torn heart
Till every prodigal will
be changed by My love
My identity now embedded in you
Gone the wounded child
I am your safe place
You have stepped out
Scared and alone
You did not back down
A warrior was born
Out of the ashes you rose
Your heart stubbornly free
Ready to move to the sound
of only My voice
A brave son and daughter
Darkness had to leave.
