RESTORE ME TO SANITY

Dear Heavenly Father,

I come to You and I pray
That everyday, all day
You give me strength
No man can take away

And so, I'll live this life for You
I'll even die for You
But you died for me
So that I won't have to

Pumping poison in my veins
Definition of insane
Mom and dad stressed out
What's going through my brain

Somebody slap me
That's not the way I was raised
But you prayed, and I prayed
And we prayed, then we praised

And the chains began to break
And then God released His grace
And I went from overcoming
To this home called Faith

I gotta thank my daddy
For staying up in my face
Slowed down after 12 steps
He told me "Pick up the pace"

I made the discovery
God is my recovery
I'll depend on Him
I can feel His spirit hovering

A good work has begun
In the name of God the Son
And when this life is finished
I want to hear "Well done"

My brothers hold no remorse
Get to the Source
Make amends
And when this journey is finished
Remember...
It don't begin till it end
Seen it again and again and again and again
I decrease so You can increase
And let the church say
AMEN
