I Am Alive
As I dwell in my sadness,
Thoughts return of my madness,
As a shadow covers my head,
I am so grateful not to be dead,
Within my spirit a peace you will find,
I have yet to be at peace within my mind,
Lost in a world of disbelief,
I sometimes find myself in a world of grief,
I thank my spirit that keeps me well,
That keeps me out of the depths of hell,
Within my spirit a burning flame,
It’s the Holy Spirit that keeps me sane,
All I know is I have to survive,
Thanks be to God who keeps me alive,
When I feel I go through the worst,
I remember the lord who loved me first,
When I find it hard to face another day,
I get on my knees and begin to pray,
My lord my God I turn to you,
To grant me the spirit to carry me threw,
When I feel this burden is to much I shout,
Lord find a way to let me out,
I have to live this life for it is the lords will,
Praise the lord who grants graces for the mentally Ill.
