I Remember When

I remember when I had nothing My soul was empty I wanted more and plenty, Then God gave me something. He gave me the hope and desire, To keep me away from Hell's fire. I remember walking all alone No one ever proudly at my side No one to which I could trust or confide, Even the people I had loved and known. Then that feeling God got rid of, When he showed me his everlasting love. I remember asking for help And no one was ever there Even the ones to who I gave my love and care, The beach was deserted except for the kelp. Then I felt the warmth of the sun, God gave me his son.
