Help me to be who you want me to be
I fight with my demons, please set me free
Your lighthouse sheds its light ‘cross the sea
Give me the strength to endure patiently
Divinity shines like a candle in me
I feel its warm glow fill me with peace
Instill your vast knowledge and let me see
Perhaps there’s some meaning to how life should be
I live and I learn, I try faithfully
To meet opposition along this journey
With each lesson learned I’m drawn unto thee
T’ward mansions above, with you I may be
No more to dwell in dark misery
Forever and ever, sweet serenity
