From the Pits of Hell into the Joy of Heaven

Jenny Heart

Way into the night I fall into the pit of despair

I cry and think how can this can happen it's just not fair

Everyone else I know has some happiness I sign

Why can't I

My dreams pay no mind that life has been unfair to me

It just haunts me by letting my mind pay attention to thee

Further into the night I feel out of mind and body and soul

This is the fault of only one force; it's as black as coal

It's the pit of hell that has left me feeling numb

Now I call out to you Lord

My life needs you to come

And give me life that if filled with beauty and love

Now my dreams will be never haunting

But instead full of peaceful waters

Joy was once lost

But now is found

Lord come

And wash away all tears from my life

And

Keep me smiling

Far the devil has been defeated

    This is excellent. I started regularly going to church and religion classes back in September, and I feel like a new person. God is the center of my life now, and I feel complete. :)
