Where Do I Belong?

Thoughts spill from my mind

But my mind is still overflowing

There's no room inside my head

I'm trying to sort things out

Just trying to make sense of it all

 

I look to the left

I look to the right

I can't tell which direction I'm supposed to go

I thought I knew where my life was headed

And then everything changed so abruptly

 

Where am I supposed to go?

What am I supposed to do?

Lord, please help me

I need to find my way home

But first I need to know where that is

 

Money, or lack there of weighing down on me

A heartache so strong I can't heal on my own

Questions and no answers to be found

An inner struggle I just want to end

Peace of mind and a chance to really be happy is what I seek

 

I want what is best for those I love

Seeing people in pain tears me apart

Whether they're sick, brokenhearted, broke, or just plain stressed

I would love to take their pain away

My prayers, thoughts, and support are with them all

 

Hear my prayers

Wrap Your arms around the people I love

Lift them up, whether they believe or not

Help them, heal them

I want them to shine like the stars they are

 

And give me direction

Guide me to where I belong

Give me the peace of mind I desire

Help me, heal me

I can't go on like this

 

There are voices in my head

One says you're a fool to think things will ever work out for you

Just look at the mess your life has been

Happiness, the kind that lasts never stays

Peace of mind, keep dreaming

 

And another voice says to me

That's right, keep dreaming and dream big

If you keep trying

That darkness will be squashed

You can overcome it in time and have the life you want

 

I have always been at war with myself

I always end up back at Your feet

In my heart, I know

That I will get through whatever life throws at me

If I just keep the faith

 

So that's what I'm trying to do

Trying not to give up or give in

I want a good life

You say it's mine if I work for it

And trust in You to help me the rest of the way

 

So help me

I'm asking with every fiber in my being

Help me find my place

Show me where I belong

Light my path and I will go
