Path

I'm sinking deep, in the muddy night
No one to lift me up, no shining light
I pray to you, my God, I beg of thee
Promise me to your son, set my soul free

Don't let me be, a cruel orphan
Lost and alone, without a home
Help me confess, help me deny
Guide me through, the darkest sky

You who shape, the clay of my heart
Help me bear, the weight of every part
To confess, to deny, both my needs
Give me strength, to face my deepest fears and deeds

Don't let me be, a cruel orphan
Lost and alone, without a home
Help me confess, help me deny
Guide me through, the darkest sky

My heart is childlike, pure and weak
Don't turn away, when I falter and speak
Let me see, the heavens above
Give me hope, and fill my heart with love

I've taken on, your cares and your pain
In the shadows, I've walked in vain
But you watch over me, through every test
Warn those I love, to be kind, and do their best

Don't let me be, a cruel orphan
Lost and alone, without a home
Help me confess, help me deny
Guide me through, the darkest sky

Investigate, my case, my heart
Before I sacrifice, my final part
Have mercy on me, and be just
Help me find, my way to the light, and trust.
