I recall a winter night
Hopeless, helpless, standing there
Giving in to dark despair
Hoping for a sign, a light.
"If you want me, here I am"
Words I spoke for You to hear
Words to which You lent Your ear
God of mercy, Holy Lamb!
I recall a stainless knife
Only stayed by mortal fears
(Though I wished to end my tears)
I sought death; You gave me Life.
