Take me on a trip far far away.
Let me travel to a place that I forget the time of day.
Perhaps somewhere out there, there is peace,
Perhaps one day I will get enough sleep
Eight hours a night still isn’t cutting it
what’s wrong with me, why isn’t it
taking eight hours and making me new
waking after eight hours and feeling blue
I search and look to find the cure,
Taking good deep looks in the mirror
But all I see is a plain girl who hates
Every single thing about her pale, freckled face.
When will I begin to love who I am?
when will I believe I am who He says I am?
how come I don’t believe I’m beautiful?
even when encouragement is more than plentiful.
Words all around me are positive and kind,
But negative hurtful feelings fill my mind.
I can’t seem to get rid of the doubt
In myself, the darkness wont get out.
In my head value is found in my action,
Always trying to gain love by attraction
But my value is found in the status of my soul,
This is something my actions can not control.
I tell my self over and over again
That Jesus love is the only thing that will win.
My soul’s peace should rely on him alone,
Stop trying to make yourself feel at home.
Your rest is found in Jesus Christ,
Stop placing weight on your self or you might
Fall quickly down to the pit so deep.
Give him your heart as His to keep.
On your own you can not stand,
Let Him lead you by the hand.
Stop trying to get the crazy to stop spinning,
Lean not on your own imperfect understanding
I have to remind my brain every day
Otherwise my heart is bound to stray.
Bind my wondering heart Lord to thee
And teach me of your glorious peace.
You are not who your head tells you to be
Because Jesus conquered the grave in victory
You don’t have to treat yourself with hate
Meet Jesus at his pearly gates
Remember your value comes from Him alone.
He is king and he is on His throne
In control of all eternity
He gave his only son for our iniquities.
Brain stop telling me who I’m not.
You are not in control, only God
can define my significance and my worth.
He declares my value is beyond this earth.
Sit down, thoughts, take a seat now.
You don’t get to control me now.
You have no authority over me.
Through Christ, I have the victory.
