Help is on the way



My heart is weary and weak
Positivity and strength is what I seek
Help me surrender myself
Humbling myself to your love and wealth
Shattered heart and broken within
Living a life not perfect and filled with sin
Mending my heart with bandages and glue
I’m waiting, for I know I belong to you
I know help is on the way
I’m broken and you are the way
Just kneel and pray
Help is on the way
