This is a song/conversation that is meant to take place between God and someone like me...
(the RED is God, the BLACK is me)
I LOVE you with a love that's alive,
My love it's for keeps;
I would never burden you with a love
That's dead,
Or cold; it never sleeps.

Never think for even a moment
That I don't care for you.
It's your sin that I despise;
Cast it far from your path,
And be true.

Even through my darkest hour,
You were holding me in You arms.
Even when I can't feel Your power,
You're keeping my soul safe from harm.

How I long to write a glorious song,
Compose a hymn, not a sing-along.
But there are no words near worthy,
And I don't have a big enough vocabulary.

You are far stronger than any emotion
I could want to feel in this craze,
And my anger and frustrations melt away
In the warmth of Your gaze.

How can you presume to know the ways
Of the One Who taught you how to pray?
Of the One Who can't be deceived?
How can you be the one to point the finger,
So quick to judge, but not to believe?

All I know is what's right here in front of me,
And even that fades away,
Leaving only standing
One Who's Truth will never decay.

I can't believe how long
I've sung these sad songs,
Looking for a break in emotions,
But now I can stop!
I will grieve no longer;
Your love makes me that much stronger.
