My Thoughts

I don't understand my heart
The feelings that ever flow
With you God, I'm a world apart
Please help me find your glow

I know you're there, within arms reach
But I can't find the steps
To touch your heart forgiving
Within my soul I've wept

I stay within the darkness
Like a child that's so unsure
Of what's to be expected
In what he's to endure

Come into my darkness, God
In my dreams so late at night
Give my turmoiled soul comfort
And help me see the light

I'm Not Worthless!!

Tears of my heart in my life did not flow
My pain and my sorrows had nowhere to go
Feelings kept in, and held for so long
Hidden so long in my soul that was wronged

I'm Not Worthless....

Look in my eyes to see how I felt
Anguish and heartache, my need to be held
Thinking so long that your love should be shared
And as a child, I thought no-one cared

I'm Not Worthless...

As an adult, I've grown to show love
Not from my parents, but from God up above
I forgive you the anguish I've felt for so long
The heartache and sorrow are finally gone

I'm Not Worthless...

Now tears freely flow from my heart that was sore
Those words from the past can hurt me NO MORE!!
Know that I love you with a strength that will last
And all that has happened is now in the past

I'm Not Worthless...

I can now say with power the feelings I hold
And share them with others until I grow old
Shout up to the heavens for the angels to hear
No shaking of voice, no sign of a fear

I'M NOT WORTHLESS!!!

God has shown mercy to one that was lost
He's shown me his love, by his son on the cross
He's gentle and caring, will love without end
Jesus is truly an incredible friend

I'M NOT WORTHLESS!!!

He's shown me the way from darkness to light
I can see clearly now, he's given me sight
Once I had ears that were too deaf to hear
But now my Lord Jesus I hold you near

I'M NOT WORTHLESS!!!

Who?

Who is the one
in the mirror I see
A stranger with eyes
That are green just like me

The person I know
From my childhood it's not
The way that I was
I have long since forgot

Searching for answers
In those eyes that look back
A sparkle and glimmer
Of hope's what they lack

I need to remember
The way that I was
For my heart to heal fully
To know I am loved

With God's help I'll find them...
The answers I need
For my heart to be softened
And my soul to be freed
