Filled with the scars from what I've left behind A tragic story of unfit designs You are the author to my story So is this ending I face a new beginning I know This feeling all too well An affliction that refused to heal A life deemed worthless by fate Bound by these deeds that I wish to escape Sabotaged by a past that wants to see my world collapse His grace he lent out a helping hand And with a gentle whisper told me to stand I surrender this worldly façade to become the image that you have made Lord I ask for your salvation Filled with the scars from what I've left behind A tragic story of unfit designs You are the author to my story So is this ending I face a new beginning Running and hiding I thought was the answer to combat this dark essence All it did was drown me under the surface A shadow so dark that held me in place As tears of regret hit the nothingness A light appeared on the straight and narrow And showed me you are my peace As you raised me to my feet No longer filled with the scars from what's left behind A tragic story that no longer plagues my mind You are the author to my story I now know this ending I face is a new beginning Lord I live by your salvation I declare in this place that you are GOD Christ I live by your grace I declare that I am saved by your name
