What does God see when He looks down at me?
Does He view my attempts at prosperity?
Does He notice when I try to set myself free?
or insult Him with my “praise”.
When I enter His house with a scowl on my face…
When I hope others will be put in their place…
When I simply reject His unfailing grace…
and it all results in malaise.
Does He see the condition of my hurting heart?
Does He desire, for me, a brand new start?
Do I have a purpose; do I have a part?
is living this life something that pays?
While I do not pretend to know His thoughts
It is easy to connect the dots
my stomach tends to turn in in knots
when attempting to navigate this maze
He loves us; it is easy to see
He showed us through a death on a tree
Christ’s life can set us free
and save us from this phase
So give your life to the one who cares
ignore the scowls, the words, the stares
leave a legacy for your heirs
and surrender the rest of your days.
