The beginning & end

I was crying for help, and You answered me
I was yearning to walk straight, and You taught me
I was searching for a shelter, and You fetched me
I was looking for a reason to live, and You gave it to me

I was wondering who’s steps to follow, and Yours called me
I wanted to let go of sorrow and pain, and Your presence showed me
I was looking for joy, and Your smile uplifted me
I was craving for love, and Your embrace fulfilled me

I was lost in the wild, and You found me…
For You are the beginning and the end…
And Your Grace is my only and true friend…
