God, Help me to know me.
I used to know me well.
I knew just who I was and
where I wanted to be.
I looked forward to the future,
for life was good,you see.
With my loved one by my side
no mountain was to high,
no burden to heavy to bear.
I always trust you and
you are always there.
But then one day I lost my love,
and my world came tumbling down.
I reached out for an anchor,
but no anchor could be found.
I cried out to you God,
but I heard not a sound.
No peace could I find,
nothing to ease the pain.
When the grief became so great
it seemed more than I could bear,
I stepped outside myself
and watched from afar.
It was like looking through a glass
and watching me go on.
I no longer had to feel,
my life was not my own.
I know you must have spoke to me
and tried to hold me tight.
But I just wouldn't listen God,
I wanted my loved one back.
I know you didn't leave me,
you've been here all along,
waiting for me to step back in
and claim my life again.
The trouble now God, is
that I don't know who I am.
I don't know how to live since
my world turned upside down.
I just want to be what you would have me be.
But I need you right now God,
to help me to know me.
