The blessing lay in the dirt
Hidden by the curse of crashing back down into the earth
You'll never know just how long the fall was
Into the arms of the angles trying to stop me
From spinning down the spiral to get sucked into the cycle
And be swallowed by fear and forced to hold the veneer again
With a holy collide favour fell from the sky
And all the commotion was frozen in the moment
The broken lonely cry fell away to the roar of heavens might
As the power of salvation thundered through the night
It turned so cold that the snow shivered
As the sorrow left me there so hollow of hope
And for a moment in time the vision drained from my eyes
As the pain crystallised my heart withered and writhed
As the sign of a saviour seemed to fade as I faltered
Surrounded by thoughts so hauntingly helpless
And all grounds of belief were swept from under my feet once again
Oh so easily did the crowding of questions break down my defences
I silently wrestled for peace
As I stood so close that I could see
The shadows as they beckoned and they threatened to drag me underneath
But I'll embrace the heartache and proclaim
That I'll remain a guardian of grace
