Jesus—I Come to You!

For many years—my life was

an embarrassment.

Filled with hopelessness, worry

 and discouragement.

So many things I thought

I had enjoyed.

Everything just left 

 a large, empty void.

Many nights, I would

cry myself to sleep.

Knowing the hole my life was in,

was very, very deep.

Then one day, I called out to God,

 not sure if he'd listen...

My family, my old church,

I was now missin'.

My family prayed for me

 for so many years.

I would often bring them

embarrassment and tears.

God—I've tried everything else!

I want to come back to you!

I need  you now Jesus—I really, really do!

Please come into my heart

and cleanse me within.

Set me free from my addictions

and every sin.

I know that you will never

 let go of my hand.

My whole life... On your word,,,

I shall stand.

Only you can satisfy the

emptiness in my soul...

For in you, I am now complete,

satisfied, and made whole!
