Hope
On this day God gave us hope.
... but only say the words.
*****
I´m so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
´Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won´t leave me alone
These wounds won´t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There´s just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I´d wipe away all of your tears
When you´d scream I´d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
And you still have all of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I´m bound by the life you´ve left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won´t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There´s just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I´d wipe away all of your tears
When you´d scream I´d fight away all of your fears
and I held your hand through all of these years
And you still have all of me
I´ve tried so hard to tell myself that you´re gone
But though you´re still with me
I´ve been alone all along
When you cried I´d wipe away all of your tears
When you´d scream I´d fight away all of your fears
and I held your hand through all of these years
And you still have all of me

I am not a good Christian, Lord.
I am too self-centred. Too ready to fail. Too willing to win.
Too weak.
Thank you for believing in me. And all of us.
... but only say the words.
