Broken Glass

I am stepping on broken glass

Trying to forget my past

I made some wrong turns on this road

And now I carry a heavy load

I take a few more steps into believing

But in those few steps my feet start bleeding

I want to believe and show you I can

But the adversary has a different plan

I try to push those thoughts from my mind

But I still feel like I am walking blind

I know you are there and that you believe in me

Then before I know it I have fallen to my knees

I try once more and land on my face

I thought my belief would make my feel safe

These doubts in my mind are making me suffer

I know these doubts are not of God, but of the other

I wish I could say I never had a doubt,

But it was hard to endure when I had no way out

I stay still lying in the broken glass

Waiting for this time to pass

While I wait I remember Jesus Christ

I remember he paid the ultimate price

He knows how I feel and how I want to believe

He knows that Satan loves to deceive

I know he won’t give up on me

And he won’t just let me be.

I try to move but there is still no light

I reach for help, but it is out of sight

I decide I can’t let the adversary win

I couldn't let myself drown in sin

I believe more now

I want to get better, but don’t know how

I cry for help out loud

But I still felt like I was in a dark cloud

I cry one more time hoping for someone to hear

Then I heard a quiet voice say “hush dear”

I open my eyes and begin to see a light

It was so beautiful and so bright

Now I don’t remember what the past was about

I picked my head up and said “I found my way out”

I look back and realize he was there the whole time

Even though I felt I was walking blind

He softened my fall

Even when I didn't give Him my all

He never would abandon me

He just had to wait and let me see

I know Jesus is my King

And unto Him our praises we sing

And I know that when we are under His crown

There is no reason for us to be down

He is my Savior, King, and Brother

He loves me more than any other

I know that he is my friend

And I know he is with me until the very end

When I saw that light I found my way out

And now I no longer have a doubt

He wants to show us His love

And he constantly watches us from above

I was walking on broken glass

Trying to forget my past

Now I don’t remember what the past is about

And it’s because he let me find my way out.
