I have walked through the darkness
I have withdrawn to the night
I have listened to voices
that sought to divert and destroy.
Driven by blinded ambition
self centred and cruel to the core
I have climbed snakes and ladders
I have felt the urge and the call.

I have been lost in the desert
selfishly thirsting for love
helplessly barren and lifeless
I have been hopeless and cold.
You came to lift me to heaven
You came to bathe me in love
gently you heal and restore me
drawing me close to your side.

I turn my eyes
I turn my eyes
I turn eyes to You.

Turning my eyes to the sunrise
tuning my ears to your voice
my heart is softened my mercy
I am filled with your hope and your love
