Healing hands
Life can be rough and you try to be tough but how can you when you don’t feel like your enough
You wonder why you are still here wouldn’t it just be easier to disappear
You question if you should just walk away after all you already halfway
He begs me to stay saying today is not my day and this is not the way
So I try to lift up that frown but I just want to drown as I know I have let you down
I don’t want to think so I pick up that bottle and start to have a drink but maybe I should see a shrink as my mind starts to sink
I look in the mirror and I am left with so much disgust and people say all you got to do is readjust
Don’t they know i have been misused and abused
Why can’t they see that I am left all bruised which leaves my mind so confused
Every hour this world wants to devour my soul but I try to not let it overpower
Life can feel like quick sand and you wonder how much more you can withstand but then you hear his command and know he understands.
When it feels like your falling apart and just wanna depart but he tells me that he can give my heart a jumpstart so everything can just restart
Now I have a feeling and I am down kneeling hoping there is something more appealing as I really need a healing
Life can cause you to drift which leaves you wanting a lift but then you remember gods gift
His love fits on my hand like a glove and all I got to do is look above
God can be our guide and he always provides even when we hide he will never leave our side
His power can make us blossom like a flower
God is always just and in him we can trust
He gives us insight so that we can keep our light and help us to keep the fight despite at times just feeling alright we can still have so much delight as he makes everything so bright
You never have to fear as god always hears our prayers and remember he counts the hairs just because he cares
Before you I couldn’t cope I just was slipping on a slope but you gave me the rope and now I have hope
When you can’t deal it’s hard to hold back the feels so you just conceal so you don’t have to keep it real but you forget that god reveals but also that he heals.
