The Game

life

 

I’m on my way to find you

I started with your name

Long ago you thought of me

And you brought me in this game

I started solely innocent

As I was just a child

Silently you carried me

And stayed all the while

 

The worlds’ the other player

Writing its own rules

It tries to keep my team from me

Trying to hide my tools

I’d find myself alone now

Fighting the other team

For all that keeps us from having you

Is letting the world be our dream

I’m so tired of playing

Not sure the game is real?

For they’d surely find me running the wrong way

And just to escape what I would feel

 

 

Which end is the end zone?

For I get so turned around

Sometimes so hard to find the way to win

With my answers yet to be found

There is no way to buy the moves

That would even up the game

The score that I couldn’t settle

For it’s only given in His name

 

Now Heaven with God my goal

Before I couldn’t see

I’m asking that You’ll break me God

Just so I’ll give you all of me

For I believe in all or nothing

In all that I would do

And soon I see me craving

The more I learn of you

Now I have Him in me

Yet struggle still to stay in the game

For I find myself pushed aside in the sidelines.

When I fail to whisper His name

Not that I don’t want winning lord

It’s just that I need to know

Please be the Coach of this here Game

Help my eyes remain on the Goal

 

As I approach the end zone,

I pray that I would see

My way through he struggles in the red zone

That would be keeping You from me

The playing field is huge Lord

Yet when I feel you next to me

And showing me how to pray this game

Opening my eyes to see

 

I pray to have my answers

Just to keep me in Your will

Even weak standing in my Red Zone

I’ll be reaching for you still

 

Keep me grateful in Your world Lord

As You keep me in this game

For the prize at hand is eternity

In Heaven praising your name

 

It’s just that I am scared Lord

For sometimes I know not what to do

To keep my feet on the path seeking Your will

To share Eternity with You
