God is the Faithful One

You said, “You are the answer to my prayers.”
I will take care of you.
You had no money, only had love to offer.
Your honesty won my heart.

We made plans for the future.
You gave me about a day a week.
An extra day was a treat.
My love grew as much as our dreams.

One day, you started giving less.
I asked for time, you said you’d work on it.
You fell many times, I was quick to forget.
Cu’z you said everything will be all right.

You hurt me. Little by little, you left me.
You promised you’d change.
'Guess you never meant a word.

Still the same mistake, I lost count.

Lies, secrets, lost time and accountability.
You hid from me like I was an angry mob.
I could have had some dignity left.
You could have just asked me to go away.

The Lord said "I will count your tears.
I will love you even when no one does."
I pray, "Give me, Lord, your heavenly strength."
Or I beg you, just make the pain go away."

The favors of the Lord are not exhausted, his mercies are not spent; They are renewed each morning, so great is his faithfulness. - La 3:22-23


The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, saves those whose spirit is crushed. - Ps 34:19
