A Word Called Hate
Lord I don’t like
This word called hate
I used it today
When I was running late.
And I said it yesterday
And I believe the day before
And as often as I said it
Then I’d say it even more.
I said I hate this one
Then I said I hate that
No matter how it’s said
It’s meant as an attack.
Oh Lord, please help
You must of heard for yourself
Today I said,
“I just hate myself!”
