The leaves of hope on the tree of my heart are falling to the ground
The winter winds blow and I shiver in the cold

I'm *****, I'm bruised, I'm fighting so hard
But I know I must give up

Helpless, I lay
Under the covers in my bed

Realizing how much I need You
Tossing and turning thinking about the mistakes I've made

Bruises of blue specked across my body like glitter
I've been fighting for so long, how did I not see?

That all this time I've been searching for You,
and You've been pursuing me.

Sometimes I slip into the fight again
But I remember that You are my light

I can feel You molding my heart
The snow is melting away

Hope starts to bloom
I am made whole in You.
