Crippled

The horrific fear I feel is enough to frighten death

My minuscule attempts to enjoy the light are quickly dashed by the oncoming darkness

I lay my head down to rest But my sleeping place is full of thorns

The anguish that has buried itself within me makes itself at home

They say home is where the heart is

Is this all that there is to life?

Fear, anxiety, and then death?

I know that there is hope within my soul and I wish for it to return

But you, you have ignited my deepest sorrow

I fully believe forgiveness has been shed for you

And I fully believe that I have let you go

But the scars on my back are gripping my heart

I am crippled by fear

Only Jesus can save me now

Jesus, save me now
