He is Faithful

My life has been far from You,
My choices have left me feeling alone and confused
Why would You love someone like me?
Why would You choose to die for a sinner, one who is so unclean?

My guilt and shame fill my thoughts
the past has taken over, my life cannot change
there is no hope for someone like me
I believed these lies for far too lng
Then I relalized that my Father, my God, He saves!

God came in the form of a baby in a manger,
He sent His Son because I needed a Savior
He knows my name, my guilt, my shame and He loves me the same
His truth can guide me as He is the Way
He is witth me in every aspect of my day
He died to take away my shame,
He forgives those who ask, He loves us all
We are forgiven for our past

So I will look to Him, His Word, His Truth
I will trust that He can truly move me
move me to be who He's created me to be
Trust the forgiveness,
trust that He has set me free
Free to live for Him alone,
He has come to set me free
I will trust the One and only Savior who came and died for me!

He is Good

Faithful, everlasting good Father
Your love for me never changes
Times are hard, thoughts are dark
Yet You are faithful and true, no matter what I do
I long to know You
To Trust You! To find hope in You
I long to be who I am created to be
To stop focusing on me and let You
BE
Let You be my everything
To stop accepting the sin, the darkness I hide within
To stop sneaking around pretending I have everything together
When in fact I am on the verge of another breakdown
Lord You have changed me!
I know this is true
You have brought me to a place of truly knowing You!
So the voice of a stranger I choose not to follow
My focus, I choose not to allow it to wander
My desire for You Lord, light it aflame
Draw me in to You, I never want to be the same
Speak to me, I know Your voice
Ready my heart to make the choice,
to follow You
Whatever that means!
To follow You when I am feeling so diseased
By the crap that fills my mind, by the thoughts that seem to think they have the right
The right to lead me astray, to keep me from seeking Your face

ITS OVER! They cannot override Your truth within,
The right is Yours O Lord, to take over,
To erase my past and guide me along Your awesome path!!
