I thank God
For being the only lifegiver..
Through my tragedies
He has delivered..
I remember when
My focus was strong..
I thought I did everything
To keep it from being gone..
God knows I love Him
He knows I want to come home..
I want to stand in His radiance
While He shines above from His throne..
I asked Him to always break me
I asked Him to always teach..
He knows I'll always love Him
Though I write and not preach..
I said for the longest time
We get what we pray for..
If we honestly petition Him in prayer
In Jesus' name He'll grant more..
I always have and will be convinced
That God is more than able..
He opened my eyes and heart
To His love that's forever stable..
So, I need to be capable
To admit when I've been wrong and say..
Through my pain and tears
I lost my focus along the way..
I couldn't see my selfishness
When my focus shifted from Him to me..
Although I never wanted that
He opened my eyes to see..
Beautiful miraculous things
He had showed me in my dreams..
But, my pain and sorrowful heart
Blinded me to what I've seen..
I was wavering back and forth
I became that raging sea..
Though He never leaves or forsakes us
I forsook Him unfortunately..
I'm writing to thank Him
For the lessons He taught..
Lovingly correcting me
Even when against Him I fought..
No more will I focus
On what it is that I want..
No more will the past
Find a way back to haunt..
I just want to thank Him
To always keep me humble and poor..
So, my Father will greet me
When I go through His door..
