Is that truth really there?
The word penetrates my soul
As I stare at the hole
In my self-esteem
My finances so small
My debt so big
Where is the shovel
That is big enough to dig
Me out
Hear me shout!
Help Lord!
I’m so broke
I can’t pay attention
I need so much
To maintain the pretension
Of being okay
I just have to say
HELP LORD!
I don’t know what to do
How I so rue
The mistakes I make
The promises I break
What’s that Lord?
You share with me your riches
I won’t need to dig ditches
Outside the Pearly Gates?
No, my mansion awaits
Lord, your blessings make
Me cry
For I’ve been just getting by
Instead of reveling in your Word
And its riches, it’s so absurd
To ignore my wealth
And live in the mud
Instead of fireworks
I endure a dud
Of a life second class
I think I’ll take a pass
On that wasted life
I get out from the pigs
The prodigal is home!
I’m no slave
I’m an heir
For His sacrifice there
Makes me rich!
Without a stitch
Of self-righteous pride
Grateful I rejoice that
I am His bride
An orphan no more
My self-respect that I tore
Into shreds
You restore
But wait, there’s more
I am his heir
He is the air
I breathe
He’s all I need
I can rest
For He’s given me the best
I am His heir
The truth is really there.
The word penetrates my soul
As I know I am now whole
