Mystery

Holiness a word so oft we forget
Must we not want it
But lo, the world, with its treasures
Leads the soul to darkness

Must I not speak, if I see evil
Must I not, if you do not
Where have we gone but…
To a place where only sin resides

Call me out of the pit of darkness
Show me your kindness, O gentle Spirit
Must it not be love, that wants me?
My soul cries for You, O gentle Saviour

My mind, my heart lost in the wastelands
Wandering through the barren lands
Neither here nor there, but I see a way,
Will you come now?

Walk with me now,
Hold me close, lest I wander away
Love is near me now
He died so that I may know him.
