growing up as a cub
all alone in the streams
without parents life is tough
brother take it from me

papa bear was shot
in a hunters delight
moma took the blame
even though it aint right

5 cubs all alone
to fend for themselves
the cave not a home
became more like a hell

seperation ran its course
like fishes in a stream
another family divided
torn apart at the seams

gone to be raised
by wolves in a pack
lost in the daze
my identity cracked

not as bad as it seems
they raised me their best
teaching me their ways
and putting me up to the test

as a young bear i could maul
and tear things apart
a destructive force of nature
with no love in my heart

except for my pack
all my teachers in life
taught a self seeking path
as "all that was right"

i learned to look out
for those who looked out for me
you "scratch my back"
and "i got yours" you see?

til one of these days
in the prayer of my heart
God sent me a rose
while i was still in the dark

me aggressively raised
still she caught me off guard
soaking in the rays
of Heavens own Heart

such a beautiful sight
my eyes have never seen
before or ever since
just like once in a dream

such a sweet smelling father
the fragrance of love
subdued me with power
in truth from above

tried as i might
my darkness became
the only wedge between us
and tomorrow's new day

my claws pierced her heart
as i held her too tight
trying never to lose
such a brightly shining light

because of the wounds
she pushed me on a way
and i broke down from the inside
as i fell further away

lost once again
in the deep darkest woods
in the depths of my sin
i heard the dancing of his hooves

the angel of light
had deceived once again
as i fell to my knees
with no help from within

came along on the path
a couple ancient bears wise
as they took me in their hearts
starting to open up my eyes

all the pains in my life
and the wolves i had heard
was slowly coming out
in the flow of His Word.

through mountainous craggs
and the valleys of life
He exchanged my filthy raggs
for a fur made of Light.

eating the honey of His Word.
truely fed me indeed
no more selfish pursuits
His Blood was changing me.

til 3 years down the road
He said "Look and See"
"Now you are who you are
you were created for ME."

i traded all my ways
and my selfish desires
for a consecrated heart
forever in His fire

no longer a monster
embracing the night
i was baptized in the truth
of the Rivers of Life.

i a new creation
still a Bear from the start
Now in possesion
of He who holds my Heart

daily to the altar
i bring myself to you
Lord have your way
as i say "I Do."

there once was a bear
as confused as can be
who thought he was a wlof
to his own tragedy

He died to that lie
Oh once and for all
now he stands like his Father
a true Brother to all

not perfectly perfected
but imperfectly
a son of the Lord
as all can now see

i wait for the day
that my Lord will say "Rise."
and i walk down that ailse
with tears in my eyes

patiently enduring
all the afflictions of love
with a promise in my pocket
and a Rose from above

Soon this will come to be
as life gets better with age
a ring on my finger
and a Rose Bush my cage

with our eyes on the Lord
and His Words in our mouth
we'll call to the prisoners
in Jesus name COME OUT!!
