I wrote these a few years back when I was struggling. They aren't great, because my writing skills aren't even close to "good".
Break Me
God, break me.
I want to be like you.
I release me to Thee.
God, take me.
Take me, break me, build me.
To You I pray.
Take my sin to bay.
Yours
I surrender all,
I can't do it alone.
Only You,
only You can heal.
Abba, you can have me,
all of me.
My heart belongs to only You.
Make me whole,
I am Yours.
Sinking
The room is flooded;
I'm on the bottom,
Few notice though.
God will be my life vest,
I'm blessed for that.
Rising above,
now I float.
To "friend"
You've done it,
you've led me astray.
It's my fault, I accept that.
I believed we could bond,
that's not what you want.
You led me to believe,
believe that you cared.
I believe you care,
care a litte, because you have to.
God calls you to,
that's the only reason why.
Perhaps some "poetry" will help some...
Good stuff. Write more. First one reminds me of a fav Kathy Troccoli song "Break My Heart":
ReplyDeleteI've known laughter
Days of fun
Had many hours in the sun
Been to many mountains
Walked along the ocean shores
I've seen rainbows fill the sky
Counted stars on summer nights
Oh, so many moments
That have filled my soul with joy
CHORUS
But, it's been the rain
I'ts been the storms
It's been the days
When I've been worn
That I have found You, Lord
That I have found You, Father
It's in the pain
That I have grown
Through all the sorrow
I have known
But, if that's what it takes
For You to lead me this far
Go ahead and break my heart
I have felt the winter snow
Seen the beauty of a rose
Sat by many fires
And enjoyed the warmth of friends
I've known love
And it's embrace
Have felt the wind
Against my face
Watched the moon at midnight
Shine upon a sleeping world
