from the pit we cry for healing


in our own private hell
the darkness consuming
from the pit we cry for healing
relief from our despair
Lord you hear me
you turn your face to me
You lift me from the pit
my sackcloth to peals of laughter
Lord I praise you
your holy presence
saving me from the pit
raising me from the dead.
