Look Inside Yourself

You get up every morning
and you do the best you can.
Wondering if your day will be good
or will everything turn out bad.

Have you ever looked inside yourself
Are you pure or made of dirt ?
Did you bring someone happiness
or did you bring them hurt?

Did you pray out of selflessness
or did you pray out if greed?
Did you pray out of selfishness
or did you pray for those in need?

Remember the One that was in pain
that was tortured and died.
The One that loved you more,
the One that gave up his life.

Next time your are on your knees
Look to the Heavens above.
Jesus is smiling down on you
with nothing but uncondtional love.
