Voices

I see a boy

No, a young man who's life has been nothing but a nightmare

Long days and lonely nights

Waiting

Wondering if God might have something better

Trapped

Stuck in a home with critical parents

There's no escape,

No relief

The bed sheets are heavy

Trapped underneath

The bed room shrinks

The voice, it speaks

Why not jump?

You'll be at peace.

It won't even hurt

They won't even miss you!

Lies! Lies! Lies!

That's all they tell you!

Granny's pills!

Get ‘em quick

Where's ole Steve when you need a hit

There's no way out

you should quit

a stranger

your all alone

outcast even in your home

If this man only knew the hope that I do

The God of the universe wants you

If only you could hear his voice

He’s speaking

Just listen 

He chose you

He thinks that you are worth it

He made you

You are special

And you wouldn't believe how much he loves you

He's speaking to you

Can't you hear it?

Don't jump

I still have so much planned for you

This pain you feel, I know it too

I came to earth, I died for you

For all your guilt, your shame, your faults

I took the blame,

I made you new

You are special

You are mines

And all your troubles, I can use

They aren't too big for me and you

Come on my son, take my hand

I forgive you

Get up and walk

Come away with me to a place where you can be with me

I can make you like me  

When I am done, you will know

I am God
