I sat alone in a dark room
With the world upon my shoulders
My heart cried out, to the living God
How can you do what you do
How can you let innocent children die
Or make sad people take their own lives
How can you justify a world of war
Hatred and sin, tell me God how
How can you tell me you love me true
How can you tell me I can live with you
But it says in the bible so it must be true
So now I will pray and confess my sins
Father forgive me,
father forgive my pride
Father forgive my lies
father forgive my hate
Then a fire burned, inside my aching soul
From the top of my head to the tips of my toes
It burnt my sin away, and made me clean again
Then came the warmth that only peace can bring
Then the room filled with light, from the risen Christ
Standing right before me with arms outstretched wide
Then I saw the nail prints in his hands and feet
Anger turned to tears, as I remember His sacrifice
The pain He endured on that lonely cross
Separated from the father rejected beaten and scorned
Then he spoke with a gentle voice
I love you my child that’s why I died for you
I came to save the sinners, the liars and the cheats
The murderers and abusers I came to set them free
“but why save them, they have to pay
For the crimes they have committed, the lives they they have took
Then Jesus wept before my eyes and my hardened heart broke
And I realized I was wrong “ forgive me lord now I understand
We are all your precious children no matter what we do
Finally you see my child I died for one and all
My heart breaks to see them, in anguish and in pain
Living with the past, the shame of what they did
But I gave them free will and it can’t be forced
The father of lies have blinded their eyes
They can’t see my grace they can’t see my love
They can’t see my body battered and bruised
But when my children pray for them
My spirit can come and soften their hearts
Release them from their chains, so they can feel my love
They can feel my grace and hope and peace
They can begin to hope again, no matter what’s in store
I can heal and cleanse them, from all that holds them bound
When they come to me and lay their lives down at the cross
Then I will come and live in them and then at last they will be free
So pray for my children everywhere no matter what they have done
I know their past I know their sin and I will set them free
God loved the world so much, that he sent his only son, to set his children free
. So if you are a sinner and you want to be set free. Then come to the Saviour and let him set you free
Or if you already know Jesus then pray for the sinners all, he loves each one of us its true
And He will lead us home
