To peel back the onion
Until nothing’s left to hide
Vulnerable or intransigent
To rebel or to abide
Hey, please help me Lord
I don’t know how to see
What do You ask, what do You want
It’s not Your fault, it’s me
I’m so afraid, cannot breathe
Paralyzed and deprived
Teach me trust, belief in You
Need guidance, be revived
I’m so very broken
Don’t know right from wrong
Through Your grace, know my place
Undone, I don’t belong
Light Your kingdom come
The darkness, thus, prevails
My sickness rots, it hangs on me
Please help me, lift my veil
Tell me to be steadfast
Don’t wish to pull away
Yet, fear, anxiety, steals my joy
To read more, and to pray
Where do I go to find
To scream, rejoice, align
I’m looking for my righteous voice
To join my will to Thine
Lead me to Your glory
The cross is where You’ve shown
Your love and Your compassion
In tears of joy and love, I’ve grown
I pray in adoration
In understanding truth
Believing it’s a Person
Wisdom, whether elderly or youth
Find Your place in my heart
Give me the strength to know
In my mind and in my soul
To feel Your love and feel Your glow
