From Death To Life

A Prayer For The Children

My nightmare came to an end when I was 11 years old and this song tells you how I felt that night and the days that followed.

The song is in two parts - Death and Life. You should sing Death very slowly and solemnly and Life very quickly and cheerfully.

There is no tune to go with this song.

 

FROM DEATH TO LIFE

by

Becky Rene

 

Death

Vainly that night I lay down in my bed

Events of the day spun around in my head

All of my feelings were out of control

The shame and the guilt were taking their toll

 

The darkness around me turned to despair

Nothing much mattered, I just didn't care

No blood in my veins, no thoughts in my head

The darkness had rendered me lifeless and dead

 

More terrors await in the depths of despair

With an evil intent dark spirits lurk there

They fill up your head with blasphemous lies

Anxious to see your impending demise

 

Life

But then came a day of rare respite

That I heard a word of pure delight

A word that gave me strength to fight

A word that freed me from my plight

 

The gospel gave me life again

It freed me from despair and pain

Yes, I was raised  to live again

My heart and mind I now reclaim

 

So now I live to praise my Lord

In depths of love yet unexplored

I only live to do His will

I'll serve my God come good or ill
