I wrote “Find My Way Back” one Sunday several weeks ago after letting pride take over which led to fear, doubts and feeling lost. At least that’s what I told a friend. I tried praying and immersing myself into the Word (Bible), but for some reason, I wasn’t letting go. That’s when I reached out to this community and asked for prayer to help me pray my way through.
One of my flaws is I’m a very independent and prideful person and hate to call on others for help even for prayer. I’m a constant work in progress on that, and God always teaches me something in the end. I feel this time it was maybe a test if you will, to see if I was able to persevere (endure) what He (God) may be leading me to in the coming weeks or months. Only God knows what lies ahead. All I can do is trust, surrender, and have faith to let Him lead the way.
All that said, God led me to write this song about what I experienced between Friday and Sunday of that weekend. I dedicate this song to all those who prayed for me. I’m so grateful to all who prayed. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. The bridge of the song states the healing began when I felt the prayers from all my friends. That is the absolute truth.
I’m so grateful God led me to this wonderful community. We love and pray for one another. We may be states or even countries apart, but God hears those prayers no matter how far we are from one another. Distance is nothing for God.
When you need prayer, reach out and let others know. Don’t wait, just do it. It’s as simple as that. Again, I want to thank you for your support, the prayers, and the blessings and encouragement received within this community. We are all brothers and sisters in Christ, and I appreciate you guys. Below are the words to the song. Again, I dedicate this song to all who prayed for me and who pray for all others that reach out and ask for it.
1st verse
Working from home,
One sunny afternoon,
My mind, started to roam,
Felt the walls, closing in,
Trapped by lies, from my past,
Helpless, and under Satan’s attack,
I cried, Oh Lord,
Help me find, my way back to you.
2nd verse
Woke up the next morning,
Heard the rain falling outside,
Went for a walk, later that day,
To clear my head, and take in the views,
While on the trail,
I stopped, and prayed,
Lord, be my guide
To help me find, my back to you.
Bridge
Felt the prayers, from all my friends,
This is when, the healing began,
No longer scarred, by these old wounds
Praise the Lord,
I found my way, back to you.
Chorus
Felt lost, and all alone,
Trying, to face things, on my own,
Knew I was, becoming unglued,
Called on my friends to pray me through,
To find my way, back to your truth,
To find my way, back to you.
Ad lib two lines at the end
Praise the Lord,
I found my way, back to you.
FIND MY WAY BACK
