As I await the day of my creation
You assured me of my perfection
Nervously I laughed and turned
To watch my parents coincide
"One day," You began to say to me
As if I were all that You could see
"All the greatness of this world is yours,
If only you would follow Me."
Nine months came and passed
Telling me our love would last
Unsure as I was, I entered this world
Saying 'hello' to those I would love
Into my ear You continued to speak
Me continuing Your hope to seek
Growing forever closer to Your light
Following always where you might lead
Trials and pain they pass me by
Always I question why I must cry
Life could go on without such sorrow
Without hurt from inside tearing me apart
"Just wait," You speak to me again
"My word is on paper, and you are My pen,
To be understood is to understand
And to undestand is to have experienced."
Everything I undergo is on purpose
Every hurt, every fight, every fuss
How could I have gotten here without You?
You have always been here for me
Why have I not shone for you ever day?
Giving a light to guide the way?
Fear has kept me all of these years
Leaning on You in times of desperation
No matter the situation, Your path it leads
Marking in Your book each of my deeds
Knowing predestined where I should fall
And where it is I will learn
This is where I become who I am
Becoming for my Shepard the perfect lamb
Never ceasing to follow You
Always falling to the ways of the world
So purposeful, yet vein
Natural, but unexpected
What is meant to happen
Is unheard of
Show in me Your power
And forever I am Yours.
