Saved

   I was lost in the storms of my life.
   I was surrounded by pain, surrounded by strife.

   I couldn't find purpose,
   I couldn't find meaning.
   My soul longed for water;
   It was crying, it was screaming.

   I couldn't look up,
   I was so weak.
   But You took my hand
   And You started to speak.

   My soul drank, guzzled it in
   I poured out my life, my pain, and my sin.

   I gave you my life,
   Right then and there.
   You saved me from death,
   Hate, and despair.

   Now I am yours
   Forever more.
   And in you
   My life is restored.
