In Secret I Am Broken

 How can I face you, when my sins are so much?

How can I ask you, to reach out and touch?

I am covered with scars, and my life is a mess..

How can you love me, when I fail every test?


I shout to the world, I am a grateful soul..

My words are all decorated, in respect of my goal.

But in secret I am broken, and I weep in the night..

How can you forgive me, when I am blinded by my sight?


I fail in my choices, I fail with my thoughts..

I wear unforgiveness, where favour is not a forth.

I laugh at my enemy, and neglect to lend a hand..

How can you love me, when I am not, so grand?


My morals are beneath you, and my heart is as Saul's..

The company beside me, neither bow nor crawl.

Yet I heard about a man, whose blood was shed for all..

But how can I seek mercy, when I don't answer when you call?


How could this Jesus, love someone like me?

How could this Jesus, sacrifice his life for me?

I cannot comprehend, how this thing could come to be..

For behold I am unworthy, and I don't want to be.


The gift of life eternal, is more than I could ask..

How heaven sent to earth, the treasure for this task..

I do not know the reasons, why this yearning fills my soul..

But all I feel inside me, is to call you,


my entire world.
