The Truth Is...

I've only been kidding myself and now i'm screaming for help
because now i'm reaching for emotions that years ago I left on the shelf
i'm having to deal with what I chose to conceal
the crazy thing is, I gotta face the pain in order to heal
but let's be real, because its easy to be fake
the narrow road is a desert make no mistake
the truth is we don't want the truth
because it requires you dealing with you
the truth is like the bible, we know we need to read it
but when its placed in front of us, do we really believe it?
so, i'm dealing with the little girl that was on life support
I didn't know how to let her live, so I figured I'd cut her short
God i'm ready to live, that's my declaration
therefore, PLEASE breathe life into me like resuscitation

What If...

So… hypothetically speaking, the greatest event in the history of mankind

What if it never took place? What if all was erased? Let me rewind…

The scriptures say if Christ wasn’t raised, my faith is useless and I’d still be guilty

I would be lost forever, wandering in the dark; I’d still be filthy

Alone I can’t meet God’s standard, its too high for me to reach

Alone I can’t atone for my sins, the price is too much for each

Just think; an eternity away from God would be the final destination

Without the blood paying the price, we couldn’t afford salvation

But God created the greatest love story and in His flawless plan

He would send His one and only down to redeem man

Prophets spoke of Him hundreds of years before He even came

And though they never saw Him, they still recognized that He’d reign

So this living Christ came down, gave His life, choosing to die

For a people who were dying, so they could be rewarded eternal life

Before Christ, the high priest stood on behalf of the congregation

But at the death of Christ, the veil was torn as a representation

That now we have free access to God who sits on the throne

Knowing that Christ is interceding for us, we are not in this alone

What if Jesus called on the angels to get Him before it was finished?

Truly everything leading up to that point would’ve been diminished

But while He hung on the cross, He was making mental notes

Making sure that He had completed everything His Father wrote

Even on the cross He interceded on our behalf, because He knew the math

Life minus a relationship with God equals going down a destructive path

The love of God is so strong, He sent Jesus to right our wrong

Jesus had so much power; death couldn’t hold Him too long

Many debate the day of his birth, the miracles, his words, his life and his death

But all that matters is He completed His assignment; that’s a truth we can’t reject

   

When You Find Me...

I'm being hidden because its up to you to seek
after God first and only then can you peek
inside the mystery of who I am and my one-of-a-kind design
I'm a masterpiece in search of the Master's peace; perfection takes time
Women always say "I'm waiting on my Boaz,"
but "Boaz" can't come if "Ruth" has no class
I'll admit I'm no small task
I'll gladly remove my mask
if it means moving forward and passing this class
so know that I'm hidden to be found
sometimes silence is the best sound
I can't fly if I can't master walking on the ground
I'm like Esther, making preparation for my dream
I'm royalty; therefore, you'll find me in presence of my Father, the King!
