When I began to run away
It wasnt out of fear
It want because I wanted to
I just couldnt feel you near.
Now I know I should've done more-
I never meant to slip away
But at the time it was just too easy
To ignore you day to day.
When you tried to get in contact
I shut myself off to you
And I'm sure, beyond doubt
It was then that my sin grew.
It was so easy for it to appen
To let there be a wall
and, once up, strong, and in the way
I couldnt ever hear you call
I began to get more bitter
Why wouldn't you talk to me?
But your words were inconvinient
I just wanted to be let be.
But While i tried to shut you out
I knew you were always there
I began to wish you'd fix me,
because really you werent fair-
You promised me forgiveness
Freedom and love for al!
Well if you really loved me
You'd never've let me fall.
Who could love a God like you?!
Like you even cared!
...But I didn't really beleive that, God,
I was actually just scared.
And thankfully you knew that
You just nudged me now and then
I considered giving up on you
Though I didnt quite know when
I kept, somehow, clinging,
to the memory of that time
When i danced, happy, in your presence
And felt everything was fine.
That memory carried me through
And now I'm beginning to fight
To break the wall I made before
And do what I know is right
So this is my last chance Jesus,
You'll see inside its fact.
I'm sorry for what I've done.
Please may we start anew?
I think I'm ready now, Lord,
Just tell me what to do.
Okay, lame and cheesy rhyme but I had a need to write it yesterday and it went on for a bit :P <3
