Undeserving

How could You love a sinner like me
How could I deserve for You to set me free
How could you forgive a heart full of hate
With hands that destroy instead of create

Have You not heard the words that I've said
Have You not seen the thoughts in my head
Were You not there when I stood in the rain
And looked to the heavens and took You in vain

Didn't you see when the sun shown so bright
I still found a reason to start a new fight
Did you not notice when all went well
I still found a reason to complain and to yell

Im sorry, Jesus, but I'm really confused
Don't You feel betrayed or maybe even used
Theres not much good that I can bring
I truly don't deserve to be loved by a King

How could I ever look in Your eyes
Or feel worthy to be in Your arms
For the human in me does not know good
It only knows to do harm

And yet you see things differently
You see what I dont see
You do not think of who I was
You think of who I could be

You see potential in all I do
Nothing, for You, is too late
I see weakness and confusion
But You see something great

Your loving heart is a mystery
That perhaps I'll never understand
But I will try to learn to walk with faith
While keeping my hand in Your hand

when Jesus was dying on the cross He spoke"forgive them Father..for they do not know!". Jesus can ONLY forgive a human such as yourself. all you must do is really look inside yourself...and you WILL see what He sees!

Thanks so much! :)

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
