Grace and Mercy
It started when i was 9yrs old
trying to figure out why the world was so cold.
the rage,the anger,the wars
it didn't make sense.
Was there Grace or Mercy?
Did they fear the end?
OH! amazing grace
deliver this race and age,
for they are lost and i'm caged.
I sort the best it was easy when i was young
they call it childlike faith.
see most would question.
Where is God?
'Why have you forsaken me?
but it's been 3yrs since you uttered prayer.
When God's expected to be summoned in an instance
But where were YOU because he has always been there.
How sweet the sound,when he calls
a voice in the wind,behold.
See years of not praying,
you've been conformed to the world.
Can't listen,not even to what I'm being told.
Till one day he finds you,
broken inside.
you are quitE ugly,the scars that you hide.
But he comes and he holds your face.
OH! amazing grace,
how sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me,
With the renewing of my mind.
I'm not the girl of yesterday,
i won't be the girl of today.
Every step she says,
every step,i say.He says
we walk together.
where i go you go.
Don't abandon me my child.
But if you do,i will be waiting.
Like the Prodigal son i will be waiting.
I will find you,i will wait.
You're my love,you're perfect.
Don't get lost,i'm here.
Sweet..cHILD.
