You pick me up when I fall down
I praise Your name, thank you for your grace
then go my own way
You call me back
I keep walking, ignoring you
You call and keep calling
I block you out, I can do it myself
I stumble and fall
Now I hear Your call again
I don't answer, too proud... too proud
I get up, keep going until I fall again
I can't get up this time,
I wallow in despair
You pick me up
wrap me in Your love
You picked me up when i fell down
I praise Your name, thank you for your grace
Will i go my own way?
Will i Keep this song repeating
Or will I follow Your way
and sing a new song?
Hey, did you write this?
ReplyDeleteYup, last night.
ReplyDeleteNicely done! I like it alot.
ReplyDeleteYou're not the only one who feels that way!
Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm pretty sure its the human condition to be like that... I mean, if you look at the Israelites, it describes them to a 'T'. A cycle of sin, then God forgiving them and bringing them out of their troubles, then the Israelites ignoring God and going right back to where they were before. etc etc.
Sure does!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking this poem (would you call it a poem?) might be cool put to music. Were you thinking of possibly doing that?
I was kind of thinking it, really just wanted to write it out first. it would naturally need a few tweaks and word changes (i think) to make it music ready. But for now its a poem, at least thats how I read it in my head. :P
