God's Child - 2
He knows about my very worst sins
He sees my heart – my wretchedness
He knows the depths of my spirit
He sees the darkness within me
And, still, He gives me a second chance
When I can’t even understand His grace
He whispers hope into my heart
He sings of light, love and more
He knows my weakness and my thoughts
He brings me a sweetness and joy
And, still, He never forsakes my soul
When I can’t comprehend His kindness
He knows about the feelings that destroy
Feelings of doubt, disillusion and sorrow
He colors my dreams in cheery belief
Awakens my heart to the sincere promises
Of a Father who loves unconditionally
A God who is filled with absolute peace
He shines His sun down on my soul
He pierces my heart with His unchanging love
He guides me through shadows of despair
He reminds me that I have His strength
To encourage and bolster me during worries
Reinforce my praise of His unending mercy
He lifts me from the darkness of my pain
He inspires me to believe when I think I can’t
He urges me to just let go of my dismay
He nurtures me with a love that is alive
A love so beautiful it delights and enlightens
Reminding me that I am someone He stirs
He moves my heart and soul to believe
He rouses my faith with His unending peace
He motivates my smile and my laughter
He rains down His love so that I catch His
Wonderful creativity and insight into hope
With Him, there is no doubt or dissuasion
He favors me with blessings that are so warm
He lifts my painful depression and discouragement
He promises me that His love will last forever
He guarantees His redemption is my salvation
I will always feel like I am someone worthwhile
Because of Him, I know that I am God’s child
