Before i felt like nothing, 
before i felt no joy, no happiness, with no song to sing
    Before i felt so decieved, and so wronged
    Before i felt so worthless, i didnt know where i belonged
before i had no self control
this rejection, hurt and pain, put on me a heavy toll
    Before i would be so happy, make peope laugh, and i would be so full of fun and cheer
    But alone, sleepless, restless, and troubled in the middle of the night, my eyes filled with hurtful tears
before it didnt matter, if. It was midnight, or noon, and sunshine
before, for so.  Many years i was just surviving, doing my best, passing time
    Before i always knew, that gods abundant blessings upon me would be bestowed
    Before i always knew, i would be blessed,. And god would rem,ove this heavy burden and load
before with sadness and despair
i always prayed, had faith, and kept hope, i knew god always cared
