Hear me, as my song goes out!
Feel me as I reach for that place!
Touch me as I cry my need!
Love me as I find your face…

Scarred by my fists of fear,
Torn by my sins cutting thorns
Dampened by the tears of my disgrace
Shining with heavenly grace

Hear me as my soul cries out!
Feel me as my pain grows!
Touch me through this lost world!
Love me with fingers curled…

Stained from Your blood’s release,
Shaking in Your agony,
Reaching from that nailed place,
Offering me comfort and grace.

I walked my path without purpose,
And climbed mountains, only to fall
And land in valleys of darkness
To be blinded by the dark…
And I would stumble and
Fall…
Fall…
Fall…

Until You heard my song of need;
Until You felt my trembling fear;
Until You took my pleading hand
showing me Your love, so near…

My soul cried out and You were there;
And my pain flew.
You touched my hand and brought me where
Love was given from You.

I hear Your voice, now,
In the whispers of the breeze
And the music of life that surrounds
Me in the fields, the trees.

I feel Your presence in the wind’s kiss,
In the drops of rain,
The carpets of grass,
And a warmth that always remains.

You took me from surrounding darkness;
Brought me to eternal light.
You carried me when I was sightless,
To never again be lost in the night.

Your love fills the songs of my heart.
Your love brings me to the place
Where each need is taken apart,
And fills me as I view Your face.

Tom,
Wonderful, uplifting, reaffirming. One small suggestion: I walked my path without purpose,
[And] climbed mountains, only to fall
And land in valleys of darkness
To be blinded by the dark…
[And] I would stumble and
Fall…
Fall…
Fall…

I would remove the two words in brackets, mind you it is just my opinion. Excellent and enjoyable read...well done.
