Never Again

Upon my face shone down your rays, And upon my lips was Your glorious name. Never again could I return to who I was, Never again will I be the same.

You found me, tears streaming down my face, You found me when I had lost all my happiness and hope. Not once did I think I could find a way out of this mess, But You pulled me out of the waters and I grabbed onto the rope.

You found me in an empty room, bruised and beaten, You found me when I was seconds from leaving this cruel world. Not once did I think I’d want to breathe and live again, But You brought me joy and made me feel treasured, like a pearl.

You found me when I hid myself behind an emotionless mask, You found me when I smiled, even if I was in pain. Not once did I think I’d have the courage to be myself, But You showed me my true self and I danced in the rain.

You found me when I lost myself in false illusions, You found me when I thought I was completely happy. Not once did I count my blessings or think there was more, But You showed me there was a greater joy, more than I could see.

I found You where I had abandoned You without a second thought, Patiently waiting for me to love You as much as You love me. Not once did I think You’d gather me in your loving arms And fill me with Your love, but You did and at once I was happy.

Into my life You appeared, full of love and indescribable joy And I fell to my knees and praised Your magnificent name. Never again could I be who I was in the past, hopelessly lost, For You have changed me and I will never again be the same.
