TITLE: Cry

another one of my "songs"... about being scared of making mistakes, being terrified about what people will think, failing to trust God, confessing my sins, letting go of my fears and holding on to God. Inspired by the book of Jeremiah, on a night filled with stinging criticism and fear of the future... Please tell me what you think, thanks!!
I. I am young, don’t know what to say
So scared I’ll make mistakes
and hear them say I’m but a fool

But You say You’ll give me words
And I’ll do fine… yet
My pride is shaking
My heart is breaking

I hear, “fool!”
I can’t help but cry
I see hate,
Their disdain is eating every ounce of my resolve
So I cry and I ask You, Father let me cry in Your arms
Afterwards let me stand, strong, in Your promises trust

II. I’m still young, my experiences few
I’m afraid I haven’t been
As studious as I should’ve been

Though You say You’ll give me words
And I’ll do fine… yet
My sin is screaming
My faith is failing

I hear, “fool!”
I can’t help but cry
I see hate,
Their disdain is eating every ounce of my resolve
So I cry and I ask You, Father let me cry in Your arms
Afterwards let me stand strong, in Your promises trust
