PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Can’t say God’s given me a life between a hard place and a rock

Quite the opposite, never had to pinch a penny into a dollar

And yet not a day goes by that I don’t think about something better

Sometimes I wish He’d take it all away so I could appreciate what I've had



God, why do I take You for granted?

Even though friends and family mean the world to me

I can’t open up to them like I can with You

So God, why then do I take You for granted?



Take the world from me and all that it thinks it has to offer me

I can do without all the necessities I used to sell my soul fulfilling the fix

Cause not a single one of them lead me anywhere, let alone left me happy

Sometimes I feel so sick and ashamed of the way I went about obtaining nothing...



But pain has a way of doing that

Pushing you so far away that you never see the hand out-held to catch you

Sometimes pain has a way of bringing you down

Sometimes God lets it so that you can start over firmly grounded in His Faith



God, why do I take You for granted?

Even though friends and family mean the world to me

I can’t open up to them like I can with You

So God, why then do I take You for granted?



Can’t say God’s given me a life between a hard place and a rock

Cause here on the earth when I look up to Heaven all I can see is His face

Don’t let me take You for granted

Don’t let me take You for granted anymore



God, take the pain

God, take the pain

God take the pain and spread it on the earth

So that in the darkest of dark our only hope is You
