You wake up today
With a frown on your face
The beautiful sunrise turns you away
Because everything you've held onto
Has turned its back on you

You fall to your knees
And see your world spin around
You feel alone
Empty and bare
Because everyone you've held onto
Has turned their backs on you

You cry to yourself
As you kneel by your bed
"Would the world be better off
If I was gone instead?"
You know the answer
But things look so bleak

You scream to God
To pull you up
As you wrestle with yourself
There's only one set of footprints
Did you realize they're not yours
But His

You dry the tear from your eye
As you prepare
To say your last goodbyes
To the life you've had
Because everything you've clutched onto
Has come crashing down on you

You hear a whisper in the air
That touches you
A still, calming voice
That says "I love you"
With outstretched hands
He lifts you up

You scream to God
To pull you up
As you wrestle with yourself
There's only one set of footprints
Did you realize they're not yours
But His
