"WHAT GOD TELLS ME"

You tell me that I’m beautiful
You tell me You love me so
You tell me I need to trust You
In order for me to grow

You tell me I need to open
You tell me I need their love
You tell me that I’m precious
And strength comes from above

Yet, I tell You “inside I’m ugly”
I tell You “love really means pain”
I tell You” it’s hard to trust You
Because how others said words in vain”

I tell You ”I need these walls”
I tell You ”I can’t handle their love”
I tell You “I’m just too broken
When their push comes to shove”

Yet You always draw near to hold me
To tell me I can trust Your heart
Even when I run away so far
Your love always leaves its mark
