Daily Inspiration
The sun's rays blast through my bedroom window
Filling the room with daily inspiration
To help me brave the new day that's ahead
Knowing obstacles that await are unknown
I will hold my head high and march onward
Making sure to learn all the day's life lessons
So I'll be a better man tomorrow
I'll learn how to be truly selfless and just
For God is the only one that can judge
A world occupied with shame and happiness
Being ripped apart from the outside
I pray I have the time to repent my sins
Before the day of wrecking has arrived
Provoked by our own mistreatment and hatred
For everyone and all things around us
I'm tired and getting older by the second
My life's days steadily fading away
God, please forgive my belated commitment
All my trust I forever give to you
Undeserving I beg for your endless love
I will take full ownership of my shame
In hopes, you'll embrace me with your love and warmth
When my end finally takes me away
