Please Lord

They know not what they're doing Unaware of rushing pain Impact dealt as a heavy shrouding Feeling every shifting strain Grandeur is placed upon them Surrender to meager me Built up, give what I am Liberated to fall and vanish where it is dim Actions tell things as they are The slighting breaks me, O my Lord I wish to show them something bigger Unveiling things they will not see Too much hurt it dwells within Keeping me down here, letting me be There may not be repairs That will fix whats all been done Oh God, please heal my inside, let me be a brand new girl I am run down and I'm broken, no good to anyone I've endured too many things, Lord Keep on bleeding from within Why do You give and take away my Dear Things I've gained a comfort in? I need Your mighty healing Something only You can do I don't want to need these people I just want to rest in You I want to be Your daughter Knowing You are whom I serve Comforted with Your arms around me Feel the refuge that You conserve I am not worthy of Your answer But I still ask You one more time Please Lord deliver me from this shadow Your light...won't you make it mine? I ask to be without them Without needs they'll not provide Why are they stuck within me Flood with cold and wounds and pride I look at them but see Your hand Is it reaching out to me? I need to grasp it with You now Your strength will be the key Will you try to show them A little something of my pain Then they'd know the things inside I might be whole again? Relief might find my broken heart You show us if You will Only You can know how they will be I must look to You to tell I wish this not upon them Nor on any living man Only some speck of comprehension Something must be in Your plan I know the answer is with You Only You can help with this... They just don't know that they break me Please forgive them and release Flying far away You'll send Looking forward to that day when I am resting in Your peace
