I read it somewhere once that if I came to You for rest that You would cure my weary heart and forgive my heavy debt.
...Is there a reason why You haven't come to help me yet?
Is there a reason why You want me dead?
I swear my whole life is proof of this bitter concept,
But I've done nothing to deserve this treatment that I get.
There's no joy in my soul, and the questions I can't answer are left.
So God...
How do I move on? And make the past disappear?
It's easier said than done after all those years.
The faces of the countless girls I've quietly undressed
Leave scars on my heart and images I can't forget.
The guilt drives me crazy and it's hard to live.
And if that weren't enough, I'm frail and I'm sick.
Let alone the fact that You don't respond to me,
Your Bride pays no attention to the lost that need to see.
But if there's anything in this world that haunts my heart,
It's the choking grip of worry that is tearing me apart.
I'm so uncertain, God, that there's still a plan.
Has it run off-course somehow, or is it in Your hands?
My doubt has taken over, and apathy blinds my hope.
I'm a religiously-founded man with a starving child's soul.
God, if You're there anymore, I need You to direct my steps.
I need Your grace to move on; Jesus, tell me what's next.
Wage war against everything that holds you back from Me.
So light a match and watch it burn,
All your dreams and desires.
Take up your cross and follow Me,
I will lead you forever higher.
I can't just pretend to be strong when I'm not.
I'm too weak to fight this insecurity.
But on the outside I'll disguise it with pride,
A pride that's founded on the shaky ground of vanity.
But You've known the truth from the beginning.
I pray right now that You interpret my sincerity.
Give me the ability to trust You with it all.
I need You here with me.
Give (me) us peace.
Give (me) us a love that never sleeps.
Let (my) our faith be contagious.
Take these burdens please, and show (me) us how to finally
Run to You and never look back.
The struggles that we face will never cease to exist,
No matter how desperately we want simplicity.
There will always be excuses and distractions
That keep us from believing in the truth of the cross.
And though I'm at my weakest like never before,
Though the thought of death may seem more promising than life,
Despite my unfaithfulness, despite my shortcomings,
You are sovereign, in control, and You live in me.
So we must conquer the fear that lives inside of us.
We must live and breathe with a strong sense of urgency.
The church must be united as one.
We must come together and function as one body.
We must run to Christ together.
Never again will we be alone.
The grace of God is so much greater
Than anything we can accomplish on our own.
