Can You Hear Me Lord (original written in 1996 while still fighting my drug and alcohol addictions)

Can You hear me Lord?
I’m a drunkard and a druggie.
By now You know You can’t trust me.
I can see where I’m headed.
Still I’m lost and stranded.

I’m down on my knees, asking You please.
Grant me a little serenity.
Without You it’s too hard.
Facing this reality.

Can You hear me Lord?
Just me here alone,
In this field of stone.
Knowing if I keep going,
I’ll be sleeping here before long.
Yet I wonder where I belong.

I’m down on my knees, asking You please.
Can You spare a shot of courage?
Or an ounce of understanding?
Grant me a little serenity.
Without You it’s just too hard,
Living this reality.


Can You hear me Lord?
I believe in Your grace,
Guide me to a place,
I can see Your face,
Hear Your words of wisdom.
I’m down on my knees, begging You please,
Save me from this insanity.
