Analysis of He Sees Me



Multiple addictions
Strugglin to survive
Demon possessed
Definitely can’t thrive

I was Chosen by one team
Yet, playing on the other side
Jesus kept His hand on me
Throughout that ride

He kept pumping and pushing
Edging me on
Saying recognize who’s holding you up
Now come on home

I was broken and tired
He allowed me to run the race
Then a voice said repent my child
You’ve been saved by grace.
