My Heart
My eyes fill with tears.
Loud sounds drown my ears.
When will you be home?
How long will I be alone?
Might take months even years.
Please sweet Jesus, calm my fears.
I sit scared of the silence,
All the drugs and violence.
When will I take a stand?
Never once offered a hand.
What's done is done,
God did give His only begotten Son
To allow me to be happy and free,
Dying with Him forever be.
I rest now assured
One day, I will have wings like the birds.
Jesus took on the fight,
May prayer be my delight.
