Loneliness is a foreign place 
Lots of questions there 
Answers without a face 

I've walked that road 
It's not a pleasant one. 
From what can be told 
It lacks the true Son. 

You see, I put my faith in man 
got stabbed in the back 
Before I knew it, I ran 
Felt my life fill with slack 

I slipped away, 
to a world I did not know. 
Lost my true self, 
not a seed left to sow. 

But before me one day 
My reflection was made clear. 
And standing right beside me, 
His eye shed a tear. 

I never stopped loving you, 
I never walked away 
My faithfulness is still true 
It's steady, I do not sway. 

These words fell quite heavy 
But I had longed for them so 
I knew then I was ready 
To leave this place so low 

I placed my burdens in His hand, 
and put my trust in Him. 
He's my strength to stand, 
with Him, there's no chance slim. 

I'm on my way back now, 
to a place where it is Him I know. 
I find my true self there somehow, 
where I can walk, and learn, and grow
