Hearing Something

My other favorite song that I have written lyrically reached out and slapped me today. Really. I wrote it to an unbeliever. It was originally titled "Hearing Something (A Letter From God)". It didn't occur to me that "unbeliever" is simply someone who doesn't believe. And lately, I have been an unbeliever in parts of my relationship with God. Not trusting. Not learning to lean. So Brad, this song is to you and to other "believers" who cry out "Lord, help my unbelief."

I can see that your head keeps turning because you think that you're hearing something. Well, you don't know Me. Still, I've been watching you from a distance but oh so close to you. You look lonely just like the color blue. Cold and frozen from all you're going through. Pain in present... tense. Fear that follow and now your pride is too hard to swallow...

And you can't seem to stand on your own. But you still try to go it alone. So I stand here and let you feel strong, though I know you're hurting. And you can't see Me here in the wings. How I long to be all that you need. Tell me how long until you will see how much I love you?

Yes I know that your life's not easy. You're counting scars just to mark your journey. And some are hurting and some are healing and some you hide 'cause they're too revealing...

And you can't see that I have them too! Scars I have suffered for you! So you would not have to go through this life alone. And I want to be there when you call. Catch you whenever you fall. Let Me be your all in all! Just let Me love you!

I'll keep knocking here at your heart's door until you see what I made your heart for. 'Cause I can see that your head keeps turning because you think that you're hearing something..."
