Sad beyond compare
I have no life to share
I walk this lonely road
Carrying a heavy load
Feeling all depress
I live with constant stress
Trying to do my best
Living in regress
Pain in my heart
Never feeling apart

In a burning home

All the time
Light-headed and dizzy
Staying busy
The light of the day
Makes me pray
For the comforts of darkness
From the heartless
Maybe it just me
Trying to be
Someone free
Of falling debris
Burning eyes, weary heart
Waiting in part
To share the love
From God above
It's hard to see
I can't believe
This world can be
Such a beast

I walk this lonely road
Carrying a heavy load
Feeling all depress
I live

O Lord of Redeeming grace,
Draw my friend into Your warm embrace,
Remove the pain of the Past,
Help him find victory that
