You'Re a Gift, Not a Curse
Wherever I roam,
God is always there, watching over me with loving eyes
Whenever I arrive home,
He is abiding by my side, waiting for me to pray to Him…
He wants to hear my prayers…my cries
I’ll listen to His truth, not the abominable lies
I’m not alone
Staring into pure darkness,
I find myself tainted with affliction
I see my flaws…this weakness
Was killing me lately, but at least it didn’t turn out to be an addiction
Fantasy dwells only in our minds, embracing fiction
I dance with a partner in my mind – that’s explains everything
But, God – You are all that I need
You’re the only one that leads me to a peaceful terrain
God – please forgive me for my greed
You’re the only one that understands…when I feel like I’m caught up in the wind and rain
Caught up in an inescapable, seething storm
Don’t leave me behind, Oh Lord
Please be my shield and my awesome sword
To fight off the adversaries of the wicked past
This nightmare of a reality won’t last…
At last, God saves me from filthy, unsatisfied sin
Let the journey of life begin
And put to death the life, leading to death
I’ll take my last breath
Before we go up and down
I’m so speechless and mind-blown
He doesn’t want me to frown for long
Tragedy and sadness will end eventually like a song
As long as you get a grip on His rope, you’ll truly belong
Truly belong in the arms of peace-abiding angels
In the arms of peace-abiding angels,
Surrounding you from all angles
He’ll untangle your tangles with miracles that I can afford
He’s the key to everlasting concord – He deserves the bestest award!
Taste the fruit of His Holy Spirit
You won’t regret it…you won’t pay for it
Don’t eat of the fruit of good and evil said He
Why didn’t Adam and Eve listen? They didn’t want to obey?
Did they lack faith and was full of voracity?
They should’ve known that He’s a gift, not a curse
His words are like the most eloquent poem that has perfect rhythm in every verse
Let’s rehearse and sing songs of praise to Him
Let not your hearts be troubled or grim!
His light will never dim…He fills our cups to the brim
My joy overflows when I hear of His miracles
When I feel His elegant presence
He will help us through our overwhelming obstacles
He’s a gift, not a fool who’s dense
Or lacks sense…He wants us to seek repentance
He cursed them and allowed many hardships to unfold in the world today
I’m locked up in my solitude-scented dorm
I’ll knock on His door
And see what is in store
