God and Jesus Love Me

(I started this last night. It started out as a poem, but it turned into a song.)


Verse 1: I'll never be that beautiful girl, flawless in her own skin.


I've been myself since I came into this world, is that enough for each of my friends?


I don't like this insecurity, berating me, baiting me at every turn.


It's like I'm lost amidst actual sanity, and I've yet to actually learn...anything.


Dreams are rare, to ever come true.


Sometimes I ask myself, does he really care?


Or is he only concerned with himself and you?


You're lucky to get his attention. I used to think I was his only.


This isn't even worth an honorable mention.


All he does is leave me lonely.


We're in the same space, but couldn't be further apart.


I can't read his face, and I don't understand his heart.


Chorus: And so I ask myself this: why we are together? This is worse than stormy weather. You'd think I'd know better, than to put my trust in his hands. He demands, and I respond, not in the way I should. I'm stronger without him, yet I remain here in this misery.


Verse 2: But I know one man, who loves me unconditionally, the way I should be loved.


With Him, I have my humility, and the grace that does abound within His Father up above.


The man's name is Jesus Christ, and He is all the love I need.


His words are what I seek.


He understands my every emotion, feeling and pain.


When tears fall down like rain, in Him I remain, faithful and just.


Having God and Jesus in my life, They are a must.


So the next time I feel hurt or disappointed, I'll remember who is in my heart.


It's Jesus and God, and no one can separate me from Them, this is the beginning of a new start.


I'll be more smart, and ignore the same situations.


I'll reach up high and forget my aggravation.


I'll stand up tall, and feel this loving sensation, provided by my Creator, and His only begotten son.


I'll remember that They are the only ones I need, within and without, inside and out.


I'll scream out loud, shout, praise, and sing, until in my life, I shall have no more suffering!


Chorus: And so I ask myself this: why we are together? This is worse than stormy weather. You'd think I'd know better, than to put my trust in his hands. He demands, and I respond, not in the way I should. I'm stronger without him, yet I remain here in this misery.


Verse 3: Yet now I know better. God and Jesus are the constant, and the man is naught but a variable.


He will always change, but They are just always and forever.


They will hold me up, in my darkest times, and I will honor Them with more and more of these rhymes. Until my faith is proclaimed, to be righteous completely.


I want to be the best I can.


And for that, I don't need any man, to tell me who I should be.


It's God who controls my destiny.


No longer is it in my hands, now I do what the Lord commands.


Be strong in faith, and never surrender my happiness. He gave it, and only He can take it, so these words I sing, because it's so obvious, I now know, by Him I am blessed.
