The Edge of Dawn

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I feel the weight that held me down

Slowly dropping away,

Becoming more a memory

With every passing day.

 

You broke the chains of misery

And washed my world in light,

Turning the wrong that I had lived

Into a hope filled right.

 

I didn’t understand, back then,

How dark life had become,

But, standing on the edge of dawn,

I see where I’ve come from.

 

A life that’s lived with little hope,

Is not much life at all,

But You returned hope to my life

When You answered my call.

 

Romans 15:13

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.
