To Appreciate Me
Foolish is the heart that beats,
To a separate beat,
Foolish is the song you sing,
Not giving praise to thee,
For it is God who created,
The Heavens and the Earth,
And it is in your God,
You will find your worth,
I know not how or why,
But God still shelters me,
Saying please come child,
I will cover thee,
I know now I could not see,
The wilderness for the trees,
Now there is only one,
Who can set me free,
A trail of tears he follows,
With my head in hands,
He lifts me from the hollow,
So that I can stand,
He tells me child don't fear,
For it was in my plan,
You must bare the burdens,
To appreciate the lamb.
