I'M A SINNER AND ASHAMED.
I'VE LED A LIFE OF DEGRADATION,
DISGRACEFULNESS,
HUMILIATION.
RAISED BY A BAPTIST PREACHER GRANDFATHER
WHO SCARED ME WITH HIS VISIONS
OF BRIMSTONE AND FIRE.
AND MY DAD WAS WORSE
WITH HIS NEGLECT AND ABUSE,
NOT TO MENTION THE UNCEASING
TEASING I RECEIVED
BY THE REST OF THE FAMILY.
ALTHOUGH TO THIS DAY
THEY ABSOLUTELY REFUTE WHAT I HAVE TO SAY.
MAYBE THAT WAS THE LORD'S PLAN
BECAUSE WHO ELSE DID I HAVE TO TURN TO,
WHO ELSE WOULD ACCEPT ME,
WHERE ELSE COULD I RUN?
JESUS WAS MY SALVATION,
IN HIM I FOUND ACCEPTANCE.
HE DIDN'T ASK ME TO CHANGE,
JUST OPENED HIS HEART
AND THERE I RAN
AND THERE I SHALL STAY.
