The Only Star


I hope You know that You are the only star in my sky,

So now I want to glorify You by living my life.

It is so hard in this life to let everyone know you're a dreamer,

Because there are more broken ones than believers.

It hurts to know that others are chasing other stars,

They blame God when they are behind prison bars.

They're the ones who gave in to temptation,

But they would rather not face condemnation.

So I want to show this world who You are,

And let them see that You are the only star.
