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
