Hear the silence

On my face...

are stories youve heard before
but in a different light
whose wrinkles arent the same
as anothers lifeless fight

(and in the face of others)

I see suffering eyes
and hearts that yearn
for something to hold onto
desperately-trying to learn

(still in the faces of some)

I see hate and regret and bitterness
whose ears turn to empty fillings
throughout the years of
yelling and fighting
resounding over the love of the One true giver
screaming and denying
the truth of the One who delivers
helpless and dying
yet still not believing in
the One who is The Forgiver

of all the past wrongs
giving us a home to belong to
of all the future failings
though undeserving as we
of all the internal questioning
now able to know our purpose
because without Him, we have no purpose.

Song: wrong direction

(chorus)
Ive been wrong
looking in the wrong places
running in different directions
Ive been wrong
looking to the wrong faces
running in different directions
Ive been wrong

vs.1
its hard to see/inside my mind
God knows my heart/and theres nothing I can hide
I cant cover up the lies that-

I can do this on my own
I dont need His help home

((chorus))
vs.2
He loves me strong/even when I dont decide
to follow like I should/I still try to hide
I cant cover up the lies that

I can do this on my own
I dont need His help home
((chorus))


tag:
But
I've been wrong
I cant do this on my own
I've been wrong
I need help
to find my way home

DIARY PORTION:
So many times I try to run in two different directions when it comes to God and how I should live my life. Thats why so often I end up standing still, right where I dont want to be. I surround myself with distractions that only pull me down yet still I expect to be able to keep these things away? Is that not a little...well stupid?But thats what we do. We mess up, and God picks us up. Thats what is so ecstatically amazing about Him. No other person would help someone like me. Like me: a hypocrite, a sinner, a liar.

God is unmeritably great.
