In The Desert Of My Shame
by writerforeverIt was hot and dry
The dust blew up around me
And engulfed me in a choking grip
My soul was thirsty and dry
My heart was aching
Pleading and begging
Begging to feel Your touch
I found myself in the desert
I found myself far away from You
I had strayed and managed to stray far away
I disobeyed and did things I shouldn't
When I found myself in the desert place
I grew afraid and I felt alone
I no longer felt You
I fell to my knees in the dust and grime
I begged for Your forgiveness once more
I begged for Your touch
At first I lost all hope
The devil came and made me doubt my Christianity
He made me doubt You, Lord
But in the desert of my shame
A well of sweet heavenly water was suddenly supplied
And a voice so clear and so real whispered
"You are forgiven"
And now my heart is rejoicing
Now my soul is singing
Singing the sweetest name on earth
Jesus! I love you
