Prayer of a schizophrenic

Folder: 
2008

I am screaming save me as loud as I can

I see you far away reaching out your hand

and so I fall to my knees awed by your grace

and I let the tears fall from my face

and suddenly the scars I wore didn't matter anymore

and I couldn't remember why I cut myself for

everything changed the moment I saw you

and suddenly for the first time I knew



Chorus

I need you to breathe

cause I am out of breath

I need you to live

so I'm not held down by death

I need you to wipe my tears away

and hold me tight when I'm scared

cause these voices in my head

are too much for me to bear

without you



I am screaming to be rescued from my pain

I scream in the darkness Jesus's name

Then I felt his presence surround me everywhere

and I knew right away that he actually cared

and when I felt him touch me tears of joy welled in my eyes

I finally felt alive instead of feeling so dead inside

and I was humbled before him at that moment in time

and I knew that salvation through Jesus was mine

Chorus



he was beaten and tortured the bible said

and he wore a crown of thorns on his head

he was nailed to a cross for all to see

he was the subject of jokes and mockery

and he did this all for me

he did this all for me

Chorus
