I once walked a lonesome path,
blinded by promises of this world.
Not knowing what to do with my life,
grasping at straws like they were gold.

My steps were heavy with burden,
as I shuffled on to get somewhere.
The paths seemed long and winding,
false hope lurked just everywhere.

Until finally, I gave up:
falling on my knees to humbly pray.
That’s when God answered my plea,
and in His love showed me the way.

I know I will still stumble,
as I live my life and grow;
but no longer will it be empty,
no more living in dread and woe!
