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.

Let God Be

Silver Air
When the moonlight's on the water
at the park across the street,
My soul slips out to wander
and hopes my God to meet.
My heart beats fast with wonder
and my breath stops as it starts,
I wonder if I'll ever live
to understand our hearts.
The breeze blows softly on my cheeks
as ducks quack quietly in my ears.
I slowly walk in silver air
and pray to God, "please remove my fears."
The air is sweet with springtime scents
replacing all the old,
I smell green and pink and blue and yellow;
and feel the colors in my soul.
God made all this beauty
so easily, so right.
He gives me all the peace my soul can hold
in the silver air tonight.
And so my fears are taken and
I know inside my heart--
that God has heard my prayer,
in the silver air tonight.
