What happened to your life
That started out so well
Such a pretty baby
But now no-one could tell
You’ve fallen for the lies
Trying to make it on your own
But inside something dies
When you think of all you’ve known
No more innocence
Tossed away so gladly
No more surprise
At being treated badly
But someone loves you
And not like the rest
Someone wants to heal you
And He's the very best
Turn and surrender
Let Him give you back the years
Turn to Jesus
Let Him take away your fears
All your fears
This song "What Happened" (listen on Youtube) was written for the prostitutes in Cuba St when I was living in Wellington. The music for it was written by Ross Brennan.
Since that time I have seen so many other young, and sometimes not so young, people throwing their lives away chasing things that ultimately don't satisfy and end in pain. My hope is that this song may reach even one of them.
