Night falls and I am alone With my thoughts, my failures The harsh reality of wood and stone Revives my spirit again The solitude of God's creation Brings peace, cleanses my sins To be alone, in the wilderness Brings a freedom to pray All around, branches, like hands Offer up their praise And with each gust of wind They bow to the king of grace A fire within me burns And grows each passing moment I must do more with this life, this gift of being Beneath infinite stars I ponder the eternal And know I'm never truly alone Father, here I am Please forgive me I pray you welcome me home
