Master...
My soul is crushed
My mind is crushed
The screams torment me
My scream torments me
What good is there in my existence?
Why have you saved me from my death?
When day after day
Your child only creates more destruction
You are a wonderful master
Your love knows no bounds
You care for me despite the things I've done
You patiently listen to my screams
Until my voice runs out
Master
My soul is tired
It is weak and small
There's no end to the storm
It only grows greater and greater
I try to learn from you
But fail, fail and fail
So I read your words over and over
Hoping to find wisdom
Hoping for a change
But the more I read, the more I am pained
For I knew I am poisonous even when I was blind
But I did not understand how damaging my poison was
As your words open my sight and you clear the storm
I now understand just how deadly my poisonous soul is
And how this soul has no strength to overcome it
Despair crushes me
I wish to hide
I wish to be alone
So no one will be tormented by my poison
For I do not know how to control it
I call for your name
Over and over
I cry in my sleep
Longing to hear your voice
Help me!
I plead
Save me! I beg
Why do you feel so far, Master?
Please, do not leave me!
Please! Do not say 'I don't know you'!
Please...
Have mercy on me
I am a terrible being
But I do not wish to be so
I wish to be like you
I wish to be with you
Master
Oh, sovereign master
You answered my call
You comforted me with your wisdom
My grief becomes gladness
For you have revealed the truth to this simple mind
You touched my poison
And turned it into medicine
You gave my weary soul food and drink
You provide me with abundance
Although I am small
Although I am weak
Although I'm merely an insignificant existence
To this little soul, you give riches
Not because of my accomplishments
But because of how great your love is for me
Truly...
You lead me to a life which I do not deserve
A life that reflects the magnificence of your pure love
It was my blindness which caused me to search for you
Thinking that you no longer care for me
Thinking that you've left me alone
But your hand pulled me
And you give me sight once more
Revealing the trap of our enemies I was walking into
Thank you, Master
For loving this wretched soul
And saving it from its own poison
Over and over and over
A new life you have given
A life for you this soul will dedicate
Even if I must fight my own poison till I bleed
Forever and ever
To the everlasting King
