Here I am now on my face, memories I can’t escape I’m a wounded man, I try as hard as I can Forget the pain, forget the past, my relief is here at last Oh my hope in You, is pulling me through I’m on my way to a better day, on my way through the night Just when I think I’ve finally lost my fight On my way to a better day, on my way to new life Just when I think I’m alone You’re by my side You hold me and wipe the tears I cry At a loss for what to say, now it comes down to my faith Will I really do, what You told me to Believe Your voice, believe Your word, stand so strong even when it hurts Gotta let it go, let Your light show Cry like the wind, finally on the mend No You never left, though my heart bled

Behind the Song:
"Most everyone has been through something in life, whether it’s the loss of a loved one, had their heart broken, made decisions they regret, or a combination of several things. I’m no different than most. This song is simply my personal testimony. My prayer in writing this song is that hurting people might be encouraged through the hope we have in Christ." - Shane Bowers (Julian Drive)
