Guiding Light
Deep in the dungeons
Lost without light
My own inequities
Have blinded my sight
Feeling my way around
Trying to find a way
To finally get out
Of this dungeon of dismay
I am handed a light
At first it is dropped
It is given again
And again it is lost
Over and over it is given
And each time I grasp
With a little help
I can finally meet the task
I grab the light to lead my way
Out of this dankness I live in
No longer having to grope
In my constant state of sin
Through all of the blood
And the pain I release
I can finally say without doubt
I know I can find my peace
Lost though it may be
In the darkness I have created
I know it is there
The light will help keep me straight
The path twists and turns
I know the journey will not be quick
Or even easy for that matter
But it is something I have to stick
With you by my side
Guiding me through
The light shines bright
Mostly because of you
