+9
I see in your eyes the past that haunts your present
The pain and hurt are engraved into your soul
Your body is scarred by cuts, breaks, and bruises
You’re afraid to trust anyone,
But you can now
I see in your tears the cry for help in your despair
The anger and resentment are so hard for you to let go
Your heart has been broken by all those empty promises
You’re afraid to trust anyone,
But you can now
I see in your smile the beauty that you behold
The spirit of giving lies deep within your heart of gold
Your light shines upon those who walk into your life
You’re afraid to trust anyone,
But you can now
I see in your heart the love God has blessed you with
It overflows and touches the lives of those around you
You are so worthy of being supported, comforted, and loved
You’re afraid to trust anyone,
But you can now
Don’t be afraid to take my hand, I won’t ever let you go
I’ll walk with you side by side to help you get through the obstacles
Don’t be afraid to tell the truth, I won’t ever judge you
I’ll hold you in my arms and help you carry your heavy load
Don’t be afraid to let it all go, I won’t let you hold on to it all
I’ll be here to help guide you through all the ups and downs
Don’t be afraid to let yourself break, I won’t let the pieces hit the floor
I’ll be there with loving my hands catching all the pieces that fall
Most importantly…
Don’t be afraid to trust someone…You can now…
