Recollect

Teardrops turn to rays of sun as I look in heavens eyes;

Finally I can see beyond my own pale discuise.

Living for the world can never truly satisfy;

I have to be honest with myself, and read between the lines.

I never really was one to live for fortune or fame;

I wasn't born into money, but I take pride in my last name.

I've been to hell and back again to see the light of day;

It's time to be thankful for all I have as I'm wrapped up in your grace.

I've crossed the lines of wrong and right more times than I can count;

I've cursed those who cared for me most, yet they love me anyhow.

Now I can see so clearly, as you've washed my eyes to see

There are more blessings than I ever knew right in front of me.

Who am I to deserve such love, as many as I've let down?

I lost faith in love and myself as I slowly began to drown.

You rescured and delivered me from such hypocrisy;

Now I know that I can become all you've meant for me to be.

There's no road I can travel you won't be by my side;

I'm just an angle in the making, but you've given me wings to fly.

I pray to live a life of no regrets, and now I know why;

Life is much too short for me to hang my head and try to question why.

Through every broken heart, through all the pain and fear

I see those I love around me, and that's how I know you're here.

Your words, they flow like water, and your grace falls like rain;

You took me from the depths of hell and I know I'll never be the same.

Teach me how to live for you; teach me how to fly,

And someday I will find my way when all these fears subside.
