Tunnel

I fumble through the darkness

Toward the light that now I see

Getting closer by the day,

Thankful, Lord, for Thee

I feel the evil presence

of the past I leave behind

Reminding of my failures,

Bringing every one to mind

Demons beckon backward

To darkness filled with loss

But I must continue forward

In my journey toward the Cross

I see the light before me

And all it represents

The new life I can have

If only I repent

Give me courage, Lord, to follow

Leaving demons far behind,

Enjoy new life You have promised

Renewing of my mind

This tunnel’s not so scary

Now that I can see the Light

I pray I will continue,

Seeking wisdom, God, and might

Guide me and protect me, Lord,

Forgive me when I doubt

Love me when I stumble

Help me find my way out

Onward toward the cross I go

To the light that now I see

Keep me safe and guide me, Lord

For all eternity.
