And asked the LORD, why?
Why did I wait so long to ask questions?
That left things unanswered and left me in deep depression.
When my dad died, I had not seen him in over 20 years
And the day he died I felt great pain and cried many tears.
My mom had three young girls she had to raise
And all the time praying to GOD and giving Him praise.
I waited so long for my dad to come see me
But for some reason that was not meant to be.
As I got older the anger in me grew so strong
And I had held on to it for so long.
How do I let go of a fairy tale that never came true?
Of the day my daddy came back, and everything was brand new
Then one day the LORD spoke to my heart
My daughter stop letting this anger tear you apart.
All this time I have been here for you
I AM your Father and you will get through.
Stop waiting on things that are based in the past
And start believing in my Word for it will last.
I AM your Father and will never leave you side
For in you my Word abides.
Have faith in Me child and let go of the pain
It is not good for you and there is nothing to gain.
I will fill the void and lighten the load
Let go of the rein and I will take control.
You waited so long for your Father to come home
But I was there all this time and you were never alone.
