The Door

The door is open to stop fear and pain

The door is open to live again

In the darkest of night, when my sorrow abounds

In you love, grace, and mercy are found

Growing up alone and scared

Never really knowing you were there

I tried to run, I tried to hide

Everywhere I went I seemed to collide

With something much bigger, much stronger than me

Never knowing that one day I would see

That I was not a product of those whose caused pain and sorrow

I was no longer damaged, I now had tomorrow

So many times I have stumbled and failed

Time and again, your love has prevailed

I now know the truth and love in your eyes

I now know that I have no shame to hide

You have opened a door of love and hope

You pave the wave on the slippery slope

You part the waters and make mountains move

Always and forever my faith is in you

I can never repay all you have done for me

My burdens are gone, I have been set free
