He Is

He promised all I needed But my heart was young and hard In despair I have come back To learn to trust, to grow, to love In this life born of shadows I shall find no belonging Under skies of storm and snow I found my shelter of hiding He had my back before the unknown Holds my hand when I am alone He already defeated the dark before the start He is my comfort, my wisdom, my guiding star I no longer look away From the chaos or the broken He is my armor, my shield, my safe haven When, when everything else weighs Me down to deepest valleys He is my guidance, my strength, my company As time ticks to the ending I see promises fulfilled When all around me is fighting I sense peace and calmness and hope Plenty times I'm unable But I then can be strengthened In stories filled with obstacles Rejoice for path to You is even He had my back before the unknown Holds my hand when I am alone He already defeated the dark before the start He is my comfort, my wisdom, my guiding star I no longer look away From the chaos or the broken He is my armor, my shield, my safe haven When, when everything else weighs Me down to deepest valleys He is my guidance, my strength, my company I no longer look away From the chaos or the broken He is my armor, my shield, my safe haven When, when everything else weighs Me down to deepest valleys He is my guidance, my strength, my company He promised all I needed But my heart was young and hard In despair I have come back To learn to trust, to grow, to love In this life born of shadows I shall find no belonging In this world of vanities He is all I need, all to me
