Reliving the past

So much sadness in living life
So much hurt, misgiving, strife
Too many full of anger...
Too many full of rage...
At parents and family members
At someone who must take the blame
Is there no simple answer?
Is there no magical balm?
That can save us from disaster
That can keep us all sane...
All those past hurts and shame
Keep turning up over and over again
Whether you want to let them in
They simply pop up, bite at you; within
Leave you reeling, full of awful feeling
Thought you had conquered them
Left them for dead...
Buried underneath tonnes of darkness
Never to see the light of day
They return to cause more hatred
They return to cause more pain
Remind you of all that hurt and shame
Betrayed by memories: resurfaced
Renewed, reclaimed, entertained
In thoughts and memories
Everything in your mind replayed...

Seek the peace of your saviour
Let go of all that former hurt and pain
Please allow Jesus to claim you
Let not His price be paid in vain
He has already given His blood and tears
He has already given up His life
To save all comers from destruction
To save all of His precious children
