I have stories of mistakes by the dozen
I've fallen a hundred times and got up again
I've cried endless nights alone in the dark
I sometimes speak without thinking twice
I've done plenty that has become regretsI have memories that make me disgusted
I've looked at my photos and wondered why it was
I know what it means to fall into ruts
In this hard rain it's harder to rise
It's a price to pay when it's said and doneWho knew?
I'm a human being
Sometimes I feel like a monster
Then I feel like a saint
Who knew?
Christians fall too
Sometimes I judge people before
Walking a mile in their shoes
Who knew?
I become depressed
Sometimes I hate myself and
Keep trying to love the world
Who knew?
I'm human too...But, yes I laugh through these long years that I live
I learn to love despite all the hate in the world
And through those things I, then grow in the Lord
I'm so very thankful to my God
That He's with me through the dark and light times
(He's always, always with me... Yes!)Yes, true
I'm a human being
Sometimes I feel like a monster
Then I feel like a saint
Yet you know
Christ will not fall
He holds us up with His just hand
He's walked an extra mile in our shoes
And truth is
He's our Only Hope
He loved us so much, that He chose
To take on our punishment
He knows our pain
He cried our tears
He's the Mystery
He's the Godman
