I HAD CRIED TO YOU
I Had Cried To You
There is a great deal of depression that has
Overtaken my soul of long ago when I lost
My control over what is right or wrong
It was like a sad love song and the rain that
Floods deep within,
I was too young to understand the ways of sin
My life was never right in my mother's eyes
No matter how hard I ever try
I was only two when I started crying out to you
You touched my little heart from the start
I would get down on my knees asking you
Please make the hurt stop
Into every inch that makes me whole would
Be you Jehovah that kept my soul of long ago
I would cry deep in the night asking why did
She doesn't love me and why did my father leave
Me even without a word of goodbyes
Their ware no words of what was right in my life
All I have known was all that was wrong with no one in
My life that loved me; I almost died in my teens
And my mother didn't even come to see me
But you did that day and you had spoken in my heart
Saying you love me from the start,
When your mother and father had left you off long ago
I had never let you go,
this I put down in my book
For all to know you are mine along with many of my kind
This world is so blind they cannot see what I need them to be
But you my little one you are where
I need you to be, Let your heart sing.
