I Am Worthy

Am I worthy of your unique, Agape love?
Am I worthy of any sign of significance?
Am I worthy of higher thinking above?
Am I worthy of your righteous radiance?

Am I worthy of brilliance?
Am I worthy?

Why am I worrying so much?
Why do I long for your touch?
Your wise words fill in the gaps of my life
This jagged knife inside leaves me with shavings and wood-pieces of strife 

Delicate gravity got me feeling low
Delicate gravity lacks His sunny glow
Your unjust, insidious words drift away hoarsely
But, I flutter so far from you and weep so softly…so wondrous in serenity

Am I worthy of brilliance? Am I worthy of any epic praise with no trace of shame? 
Am I the light of the world or am I the darkness within? I am a dimming gem 
Am I worthy of the gift of creativity and logic? Am I the lunatic loser in life's game?
Lows and highs strike me odd, yet my merciful God is even better than them 

Am I worthy of Your tremendously terrific truth behind the abominable lies? 
Am I worthy of entering Your Kingdom? Is it worth the risk to earn Your prize? Am I worthy of joyous days when boredom and grief's gone? 
Your loving-kindness sweeps away my lonesome state and its silent cries 
Am I worthy of genuine passion beyond the goodbyes? Your replies is an upcoming dawn to look forward to night after night and so on

Extraordinary that I boldly met a great group of friends…my loyal and marvelous friends
Not all relationships blend together like creamy coffee in the warm, vibrant morning – sick of your  scorning 
Grateful for being brilliant and wanting to spiritually meet all His empathetic, zealous ends
My whole life has been overflowing with confusion beyond sheer comprehension, but I won’t be forlorning 

Lord, am I really worthy?
Yes, in His kind, gentle and delightful eyes,
I am worthy, and honestly, 
His truth is great, for it sifts out all the lies
