My Angel
-------------------------------------------

Treading in this black abyss of hopelessness I can't see the path before my feet I sweep this branch back and forth before me To keep myself from tripping and falling Deeper into this blackness I hear these demons taunting my spirit They're growling like a pack of wild dogs I gradually sense them surrounding me Are they plotting my slaughter? Am I going to die here? I suddenly feel the vile splatter of saliva My guiding stick has been torn from my hands I freeze like a ghost in my footsteps And I tremble like a hill on a faultline What is to become of me here? Now, unable to see where to go Shall I wander in an attempt to find my way? Shall I remain hear until I perish? My God, Can I still find you from here? Or shall I rot in Hell? Wait! I hear the soft sound of an angel's steps The sweet caress of a gentle touch The comforting sound of a heavenly voice Have you come to shame me? Have you come to condem me? ________________ You took my hand and guided me I was blind and you gave me sight You are the only person who's shown me truth You enlightened me to the love of God You helped me mend my pouring wounds Not like the churches, which shun the weak Not like the "Christians" who Judge the fallen Not like the Hypocrites, who decieve the needy But you were like Christ, and showed your heart You gave me my life back. Pushed away from the love of God By those who claim to be perfect I fell into my black abyss away from Christ If perfection was God's requirement To hell with me than Than there was you, my angel You showed me who God is You showed me his love I learned from you of his mercy And I regave him my soul You say you don't know what God wants You haven't found your calling yet Let me tell you just one thing baby If you were anywhere else Other than where I met you I may never have found my way... You're my angel.
