Inside

Deep within these walls I hide

Away from the rejection.

I'm so tired

Of all the lies and being shoved aside.

Guilt overtakes me once again

Weighing me down 'til I drown in my sin.

I'm so tired

Of all the mistakes.

Rescue me from who I am inside.

You look last my brokenness 

To see the child cowering there.

You see my silent tears

And hear my gentle cries

To find love and acceptance near.

You offer rest for my weariness

A rejuvenation of the soul.

With you I'll learn to stand and fight

For who I can be

Not just who I am in the inside,

Because I am precious

In your eyes.
