LOVE, LOVE, LOVE

I CAN'T CHANGE HIM,
AND I CAN'T CHANGE HER,
AND I CERTAINLY CAN'T CHANGE THEM.
I CAN'T CHANGE WHAT THEY THINK OF ME.
IT'S FUTILITY.
I CAN ONLY CHANGE ME,
ACCORDING TO GOD'S
BASIC INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE LEAVING EARTH.
BEAM ME UP, JESUS.
AND I MUST SPEAK OUT FOR MYSELF,
NOT BE AFRAID TO SPEAK THE TRUTH -
GOD'S WRITTEN WORD,
WRITTEN ON MY HEART,
AND AS I HAVE SAID BEFORE,
ADDRESS NORMALLY NOT INCLUDED.
GOOGLE IT.
I TRY VERY HARD TO SPREAD JESUS' LOVE,
TO EVERYONE,
EXCEPT MAYBE TO MYSELF,
THANKS TO ALL OF THIS SHADRACK, MESCHACH
AND ABEDNEGO SEEMINGLY UNENDING ABUSE.
SO I TRY, TRY, TRY 
TO KEEP MY EYES HIGH, HIGH, HIGH
UPON THE PRIZE,
UPON MY SWEET JESUS,
STANDING THERE WAITING
O, SO PATIENTLY
RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.
CAN'T YOU SEE?
AND DESPITE THE BIG WOOD SPLINTER IN MY EYE,
HIS ARMS ARE OPENED WIDE,
AND HE'S SMILING,
AND AS HE LOOKS INTO MY EYES,
I SEE THE REFLECTION OF ME
AND FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE,
I FEEL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.


PSALM 17:8  KEEP ME AS THE APPLE OF YOUR EYE; HIDE ME IN THE SHADOW OF YOUR WINGS.
