Letter To The Lord

Check you
I've been struggling to trust the people round me
And I've been running from my heart till you found me
I was numb without anyone to hold my hand
No one to hold me close to show me how to be a man
What is love I don't understand
To give your whole life away and die for a friend
Man I thought I found love before
But it wasn't till they packed up and walked out the door
Does love give up when things get hard?
Does love commit but not show up?
Does love forgive or whole a grudge?
Or does it sacrifice itself whatever the cost?
It's like a broken heart that I've written down here
Turned into spoken art with a word that's sincere
I pray to God that He takes away my fear
This is my letter to the Lord
Would you catch my tears?

Even better than I can myself
You see me
You know me
With a love that won't run out
You call me and show me
Even though I can doubt sometimes
You will always be the one by my side
Your the only constant real love
That changed my heart

Dear God I've been feeling a little low
I've been dealing with anxiety that won't leave me alone
I want to be modest and honest with my words
But sometimes when I face reality it really hurts
I think it's common to hide
Afraid or the depths of what's hidden in my mind
Why do I run away from me
And protect my heart from being hurt from anyone I meet
Could I really be complete by surrendering my needs
That I have within myself when I'm compelled by what is deep
Yeah
What do I need man I'm struggling?
Why can't I see that I'm stuck again?
I just need a friend that I can be honest with
Even when I find myself feeling like I'm about to fall to bits
Lord I know you call me your friend
And I know that we will stick together till the very end

Even better than I can myself
You see me
You know me
With a love that won't run out
You call me and show me
Even though I can doubt sometimes
You will always be the one by my side
Your the only constant real love
That changed my heart

There's many tears that I've shut down and killed
Cause I've struggled to be real
To worried to be still
To tense and on edge to reflect on what I feel
But now I realize that it's in the stillness that I heal
In the Presence of the Lord is where I kneel
With tears in my eyes
And a whisper that he'll deal
With every broken piece that I carry and conceal
He'll bring to the surface with a purpose to rebuild
Lord you say blessed are those who mourn
I thank you that you comfort me in chaos and the calm
With a real love that comes from the Spirit of God
I'm thankful that in my weakness is where I'm truly strong
This is a song that I'm singing like a prayer
Jesus I know that your listening because you care
I love you with everything
You take away my fear
Thank you for the blessing of your Presence that is here
Yeah
