God Loves Me Someone hurt my feelings Devastated my pride Wallowing in self pity I sought a place to hide. Muttering about retaliation, Planning my revenge, I'd make them very sorry They left me on the fringe! Searing pain of rejection Was overpowering me Depression was descending, No way I could break free. Somewhere in the distance Church Bells began to chime Suddenly I saw how petty Were these thoughts of mine. I pictured Our Lord Jesus Nailed up on the Cross Tears filled my eyes, I bowed my head, My heart filled with remorse. Forgive me Lord, I am unworthy, A sinner weak and vain I felt a warmth well up inside As He welcomed me back again. Three words were echoing through my mind, Three words I had forgotten As down the selfish path I walked I had ignored what was important. It matters not what others think Or what we have on earth. Say these three words and you will know Just how much you are really worth. GOD loves me, God LOVES me, God loves ME Sharon Langan 2002 |
