Do you have a moment for a foolish daughter?
It's been awhile since I've been down on my knees
Too busy running from my weariness
Hiding from responsibilty
Doing whatever I please.
But my heart was always true Lord
I never rejected you Lord.
I rejected me.
I let broken dreams break me
I let sorrow take me.
I let other people move me and rock me and shake me.
All while I slept in apathy, discarded dignity.
And by your kindness and grace
Find that I am only bruised, not effaced.
Ready now to stand
And hold again to your Hand
Walk straight into the lion's den
As the strong woman I am
You made me a woman who can.
Or how many useless tears I weeped
How many foolish hopes I chased
While my true path lay to waste
Love kept flowing into me
As strong and great as my need
My children, my friends, my family... their Love lifted me!
Their living, real love..... their faith in me
It's why I'm strong... it's why I believe.
Forever and always.. Amen.
