Deep in the past;
On through the night,
Thoughts provoked me
Withholding sight.
See me now
By morning light,
I've been beaten
By this plight,
Spit on, kicked,
Mocked, and torn.
I just want victory,
Sound the horn!
For now my life
Is sad and worn.
For then I knew not
What I'd been
All I knew
Was what I'd seen
And this light I now see;
I now feel;
I now be;
Overtakes me.
The difference was He.
From life now taken,
I am unbroken.
No chains now hold me,
I stand redeemed.
