A Way Out Of Depression
Lord, I need your help.
I'm hurting so bad.
The pain makes me complain,
Cry, or get mad.
I've made mistakes in life.
I feel the guilt and shame.
I can't go back and fix things.
I'm the one to blame.
God, what do I do?
I've done all I can.
I tried facing the Accuser,
But instead, I just ran.
Lord, erase painful memories
That haunt me - even now.
I try to forget,
But I just don't know how.
(God speaks.)
Yes, Lord, I know I must
Live each day like it's my last.
I need to forgive myself,
And stop dwelling on my past.
There's a way out of depression.
You've opened my eyes to see...
To start thinking about others,
And stop thinking about just me.
