I Was There

I was there

When they broke in and stole her soul

I was there

When they plucked her wings and caged her mind

I was there

When they tried and judged her heart

I was there

When they broke her will and enslaved her body

I was there

When she cried from the pain and prayed in vain

I was there

When she lost her way and went astray

I was there

When her breath started getting heavy and her body cold

I was there

Long before she was born and will be for ages to come

I am hope

And I was there
