My Rescuer

There was a time when I thought I was all right
Didn't know the difference between day and night
So naive to think that everything
Would end up the way I wanted it to be

Well I was hurt and I felt pain
And I finally knew the meaning of shame
Couldn't recognize your true love
To busy building walls that towered above

Tried being too strong for you to get through
Wasn't ready to give up and believe the truth
My heart was broken, my soul was weak
But all the others saw was what all seek

Then you came along and saw the real me
All bent and broken, all scratched and dinged
And it scared me that you knew so much
But there was no dissention in your touch

For the first time in my memory
I felt something that was pure and free
No judgement, no tearing down
You only offered me a crown

Looking into your loving eyes
I understood what made the sky
It wasn't anything that could be explained
It was a man worth everything

Oh God you helped me out of the dark
Showed me it was okay to come near the spark
I had so much to fear but not by your side
When I'm with you there is only pride

Whoever thought such a change could come about
That it'd be so easy to sing and shout
Think about you and the words, they flow
Come on, let's put on a show

Hold my hand as we walk along
So many traps and temptations strong
Unbelievable I can make it through
I know the only reason is you...I know the only reason is you...
