Fake

Come to me
That I may live
I've scattered into pieces
Will You gather them
I've put my hope in Your word
I've got nothing left to give of any worth
Make me real
Make me real.
Cause I don't wanna be a fake
I don't wanna be a phony
What lies behind this face
So close so far away.
Oh weak knees
Why can't you stand
Why do I feel so stupid
Always giving in
I curse Your name forsake Your love
As if those splinters in Your back wasn't enough
What've I done
What've I done.
Cause I don't wanna be a fake
I don't wanna be a phony
What lies behind this face
So close so far away.
Cause He's a light unto my path
And a lamp unto my feet
For these I don't have to ask
For Thou art with me.
Shattered dreams
And wasted years
Silent screams
And nameless fears
I've put my hope in Your word
This world's got nothing left to give of any worth
Make me real
Make me real.
[1 John 2:5,6
Psalms 119:73-80]
