Open Your Heart and Ears
I want to be love and cherish
I want to feel the need to be wanted
So tired of being alone
As I complain to myself over and over again
Why isn't anyone answering me?
Am I just another unheard voice
But yet again still no answer
I never understood when people once told me that I am never alone
But if that is so true why am I so sad?
why am I so scared?
why am I so confused?
But still no answer
So one day I decide to just listen
And for once a heard a soft gentle voice that said unto me
If you are so alone then who are you talking to?
And if you are so alone who dried your tears when you cried yourself to sleep at nite?
If you are so alone who feed you when you had no food to eat?
If you are so alone who kept a roof over your head when you lost your job?
As he continue to talk I continue to listen
Then a burst of reality came rushing down my thoughts
I was never alone
Maybe if I took the time to say thank you instead of complaining
I would have known that I was never alone
Now that explains the double footprints
the extra voice
the gentle touch
and the uncanny feeling of being love and wanted
I had someone with me all the time
But why couldn't I see it?
Maybe I didn't want to see it
All that matter now is that I see, I feel, and I love it
And all I have to say is
"THANK YOU JESUS"
I want to feel the need to be wanted
So tired of being alone
As I complain to myself over and over again
Why isn't anyone answering me?
Am I just another unheard voice
But yet again still no answer
I never understood when people once told me that I am never alone
But if that is so true why am I so sad?
why am I so scared?
why am I so confused?
But still no answer
So one day I decide to just listen
And for once a heard a soft gentle voice that said unto me
If you are so alone then who are you talking to?
And if you are so alone who dried your tears when you cried yourself to sleep at nite?
If you are so alone who feed you when you had no food to eat?
If you are so alone who kept a roof over your head when you lost your job?
As he continue to talk I continue to listen
Then a burst of reality came rushing down my thoughts
I was never alone
Maybe if I took the time to say thank you instead of complaining
I would have known that I was never alone
Now that explains the double footprints
the extra voice
the gentle touch
and the uncanny feeling of being love and wanted
I had someone with me all the time
But why couldn't I see it?
Maybe I didn't want to see it
All that matter now is that I see, I feel, and I love it
And all I have to say is
"THANK YOU JESUS"
