Gods graffiti

by Sarah   Dec 17, 2005


God's graffiti on my mind
The lessons I've been taught
Been brought up decent, Christian child
I obeyed but never thought

I did what I was told to do
No passion in my soul
My mind had strayed to other things
I aimed for hopeless goals

Of course, the worldly things I reached for
Could not fulfill my life
So as I avidly pursued them
I went through much unneeded strife

The world around me shattered
But desperately I clung
To all the things I thought had mattered
The fragile strand from which they hung

God finally cut the hopeless strand
My lonely heart was bare
I hated everything around me
For even life I didn't care

God took my empty, desperate heart
Revealed his awesome power
I felt his overwhelming love
I cried repentance in that hour

A living sacrifice I make my life.
I live to praise His name
We can only work for Him
All else is earthly, hell bound game
