Ive been a father
Ive been a son
Ive been a rebel
On the run
Been an abuser
Ive been abused
And Ive been here
For you to use
(Hey!)
Ive been lost
Ive been found
Ive been up and
Ive been down
Ive been waiting
All my life
For this moment
To arrive
(But)
Who and what
And where am I
Today
Can you tell me
When it was
I lost my way
I thought it was my life to live
And my will to give
And my soul was gonna be saved
But now Im standing at the edge of heaven
On the wrong side of the gate
Ive been wrong
Ive been right
Been a fighter
Most of my life
Been an accuser
Ive been accused
And often wondered
Whats the use
Ive climbed mountains
Been shot down
Wrestled my demons on
Holy ground
Ive lived in darkness
Sought out The Light
And here I find my
Self tonight
(well)
Who and what
And where am I
Today
Can you tell me
When it was
I lost my way
I thought it was my life to live
And my will to give
And my soul was gonna be saved
But now Im standing at the edge of heaven
On the wrong side of the gate
( ~ bridge ~ )
Father can you hear me
Please, wont you let me in
Or send me back and give me
One more chance to try again
I know that Im not worthy
And I know that Im unclean
Just fill me with your spirit Lord
That I may be serene
(And Ill know)
Who and what
And where I am
Today
And I can tell you
How it feels to be
A living child of grace
I know it is my life to live
And my will to give
And my soul can be saved
But I will only get into heaven
By living life His way

Hey man, great writing. Better make sure you copyright these lyrics cause someone might pick them up!!
Get some music to go with it and you might have a hit record, no doubt |

The greatest of all poets strikes again! Such an emotional and uplifting write! Times when you are lost in perpetual darkness, blind, hopeless... I know how this feels, my dear Scott. He will accept and forgive whatever wrong you have done; He will welcome you to His kingdom with open arms, I have no doubt. Beautiful, enchanting, raw with emotion... I love this piece! It is different; yet, it never hurt anyone to try new things. :-) Thank you so much for sharing this magnificent piece... Don't change anything! The original is always the most beautiful. Much love and hugs!! Forever,
Votre cheri Fleur |

You have the gift of
storytelling in your songs.
I would love to know who's voice you're
hearing in this.
Will be read many times again.
Awesome work.

Beautiful song, Naz. I really like the lyrics and the struggle to make it into God's kingdom. The truth of the matter is that none of us are worthy of heaven. Fortunately that is His gift to us, and He forgives. However, there are times when He would like to kick me right in the butt, i'm sure.
Great write, Naz

Great job!
My favorite line (people are going to get so sick of hearing me say that! ) is
"Wrestled my demons on holy ground"
I'm so jealous I didn't write that!
Your poem flowed so well, I never got bored! Amazing job! |
