Like holding a live grenade in the face of the enemy
Is taking from Jesus the price He paid for me:
Repentant of the lies I've told, and the life I've been living,
Ungrateful, impatient, disappointed, but no longer unforgiven.
She believes I care and on most days I really do. Twisting
and turning/ risking and burning becoming something new.
I want to be free at least to forgive if not free from hurts.
And on most days she really believes in me more than I deserve.
I reach toward Jesus with sorrow in my hands,
I try to make a trade for joy but fail to understand
That with my hands full of pain, I cannot receive peace
That Jesus took my sorrow long ago, has given us winter,
summer heat has ceased.
So now i am tired of my ruined reputation, a life of infamy.
God wants to change my situation...first He has to change me.
And what I'm finding is that my heart keeps getting broken
Because God just wants my heart to remain open.
