Full of despair? Try this?

I am trying to work on some new ones, in the meantime, I thought I'd repost this as a reminder to many and a wake up to others.
The inspiration for this came from some messages I was getting while reading my daily devotionals and reading plans the one day. The thoughts of being broken and lost then being saved hung on my heart until these words poured out. I know of many people personally who are like the person talked about in the first and seconds stanzas. I pray for them everyday that one day they will be like the person in the final few stanzas. If you know someone today who doesn't already know The Lord, why not have them read this with you or some of my other ones.

Was and Am because of Him

I am broken,

dark and bitter,

guilty and full of shame

fit right into the evil one's game

I am scared

alone and discouraged

hopeless

don't know where to go from this mess

Day in and day out

I have lived without

joy and peace

wanting and needing more.

Then you walked through my door

You told me to follow you 

You told me the enemy lied

following him, I'd have died

You placed in my heart everything I had to do

Under your wing I did go

rescued by your grace

no more would I be broken

no more would there be bitter darkness

Gone would be the guilt or shame

You've helped me beat 

the evil one at his own game

I am forgiven

free and humbled

rescued

washed clean by My Savior's blood

I am purified

saved and loved

 grateful

that I've been chosen from God above

Eph 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves; 

it is the gift of God
