A Man With Depression

Asks his god to save him from dark thoughts

Save Me Lord, I Am Just a Man

Save me Lord, I am just a man

I walk this road with shaking hands

The nights are long, the days feel cold

And I grow tired of being bold.

I stumble through the weight of life

Through empty halls and quiet strife

My heart has fought for all it can

Save me Lord, I am just a man.

I try to rise, I try to stand

But storms keep rolling through the land

And in the rain I bow my head

While silent thoughts are filled with dread.

I watch the seasons come and go

The rivers freeze, the soft winds blow

I search for light, I search for peace

For moments when my fears will cease.

I have no crown, I own no throne

I kneel upon the earth alone

A simple soul, a fleeting breath

A shadow walking next to death.

So hear me Lord, and take my plea

Wrap gentle arms in front of me

Guide every step, fulfill your plan

Save me Lord, I am just a man.
