Suicide

The weight of life is pulling me down,
The worries, the troubles, I sink and I drown.
My cries for help are always in vain,
No one understands my aching pain.

I long for peace, yearn for eternal sleep,
The fruits of life, I cannot reap.
Oh Father God, why have You deserted me,
I feel so alone, utterly and completely.

My child, I can heal you from your despair,
Help you to see the beauty of life and make you truly aware.
Shake the cloak of doom from your heart and soul,
My arms outstretched - come to Me, I will make you whole.

Rebuke the darkness from your life and see
Your potential attainable through My Son and Me.
I gave you life, it is not yours to take away,
If that is your plan, get down on your knees and pray.

You have only one life to make a choice,
eternal hell or in heaven rejoice?
Time is short, the hours are less,
Come to me now, it is you I long to bless
