Let God Be

Don't you know that God knows your struggle
  and weeps at the pain he reads in your soul?

Don't you know that God, your Father,
  feels the lump in your throat, the racing of your
  heart and the weakness in your limbs
  as you face yourself and the demons
  of life in this world?

Don't you know that He loves you more
  than we could ever love anyone?

God made you,
God knows you from the inside out.
God loves you!!

He knows every single moment of your life
  and every little wrinkle on your face.
God hears the struggle in your soul,
  the panic of your breath,
  the song in your heart,
  the good words on your tongue,
  and the lies in the back of your mind that you
  think no one knows except you.

God wants to hold you close
  and dry your tears.
He wants to hear your breath
  be soft and peaceful like a little child's.
He cherishes the good words on your tongue
  like honey from the honeycomb.
He wants to wipe out the bitter lies
  in the back of your mind--
  both yours and Satan's.

God has been, is, and always will be
  your very best friend, your Father
  and the keeper of your soul.

All you have to do is let His spirit
  heal your heart, comfort your mind
  and bring peace to your soul.

All you have to do is be still and
  let God be...God.
