Ball

 

BALL

Screwed up like a ball

Protected by a covering

Afraid to share at all

Wound up by fear of change

A person can survive

Sitting on the outside

Looking at the beauty

Of what He's doing today.

What's the use of change

It only brings you problems

I'm perfect as I am

I do my best by Him

But there is something more

A loving kind of future

If only I would trust

And let dear Jesus in.

Oh peel away these layers

These chains that are my jailer

Let me open out

Into the flower that I am

The joy that lives within

Is buried deep inside me

Someone notice me

And help me live again.

Let me feel the power

A deluge of the water

Cleansing deep inside

Removing all my pain

Take away the fear

The thought of being foolish

Here, have all of me

I cannot stay the same.
