Save Us, Save Me.

Save Us, Save Me.

A Poem by Keenan Broad

We're broken, were beaten, how long will this last?
We've heard the stories "this too shall pass"
We seek more comfort, we seek more care
When we need you, will you be there?
God I am sorry, I cannot go on
How can I right now, where do I belong
I'm lonely I'm tired, my life is a mess
I'm a sinner a bad man this I confess
I have my mistakes, but all of us do
Please forgive us, we know not what we do
I cannot save myself, Oh please don't leave me here.
I'm on my hands and knees, Lord don't let me fear.
Is this life worth living or should I give up
I'm scared, I'm pleading, why do we grow up
We would sit, laugh and play all day
We didn't know much, but it was all okay
Now it's reality and in that there is pain
How is this living, nothing's the same
We slave and work, what do we get
A year full of war and a life of regret
There's so much to live for but I'd much rather go
Some seek riches I just want a home
Not a house on the hill, not a lot of stuff
Just a woman who cares, a woman I love
I'm happy, I've found her, is this really true
I'm lucky, I'm loved, it's all thanks to you
God, I was pleading I was down on my knees
You've given me all that I'll ever need
My life was a wreck, an unworthy mess
I believed in your prayer lord, I'm so very blessed
