Beauty in the Struggle
Beauty in the Struggle
Album By Dusty Marshall
Dear lord I’m praying for release
No more hustling on these streets I’m seeking out your peace
Been drug dealing since the age of 15
Till you came along and wiped my slate clean
Scene as criminal with minimal mind states
Villain of the world just a statistic in crime rates
All the lies told me that I’m worthless
But you died to tell me that I’m worth it
Through these verses I’m spreading your name
There’s truth in your word that’s pulled me from my shame
Hiding in darkness and running from pain
Now I’m living in Christ where dying is gain
Aiming at the stars believing impossible is probable
Addicted 15 years now returning as a prodigal
Son from the one who made me brand new
Now I’m a nationwide traveler coming to a city near you
You are my sunshine come and let your son shine
Let your love shine run it through me one time
Listen up this is what He said
The truth will set you free the truth is who I am
We are the light amongst all the people
We shine in the night give hope to the feeble
Black or white there is no gray
We’re set apart like night and day
Father God keep me seeking your face
Won’t be masking your word for hiding my faith
I was a lost soul pushed people to addiction
Abused women and persecuted your children
My decisions were one’s I couldn’t live with
So I numbed the pain with overflowing pill scripts
Till one night it all seemed so clear
Staring in the mirror knew that you were standing near
You took the fear that was living inside
Exposed the truth buried deep within my lies
You changed my views like night and day
Now my face is to the floor in surrender as I pray
Day to day it is you I will follow
Forgiveness from my past frees my worry for tomorrow
Not on borrowed time 'cause his plan was predestined
Confessions of a dangerous mind till intercession
You are my sunshine come and let your son shine
Let your love shine run it through me one time
Listen up this is what He said
The truth will set you free the truth is who I am
We are the light amongst all the people
We shine in the night give hope to the feeble
Black or white there is no gray
We’re set apart like night and day
No more hustling on these streets I’m seeking out your peace
Been drug dealing since the age of 15
Till you came along and wiped my slate clean
Scene as criminal with minimal mind states
Villain of the world just a statistic in crime rates
All the lies told me that I’m worthless
But you died to tell me that I’m worth it
Through these verses I’m spreading your name
There’s truth in your word that’s pulled me from my shame
Hiding in darkness and running from pain
Now I’m living in Christ where dying is gain
Aiming at the stars believing impossible is probable
Addicted 15 years now returning as a prodigal
