Reconstruction
If I am honest, the faults I see in others are a true reflection of me...
Oh Lord, help me to recognize my own hypocrisy.
Sometimes it's easy to point at others and see all the bad that is...
But we must be loving and forgiving because we're one of His.
I have plenty of faults that are plain for all to see...
And all I can say is please be patient and forgiving of me.
I am a work in progress and there is still a lot of loose ends...
A lot of rough miles and more losses than wins.
We can't give up because there is still a long way to go...
And I am still discovering faults I didn't even know.
This reconstruction can be hard on one's pride...
But I guess it will continue until we're on the other side.
