Faith



Is there Someone up above, who's watching with His eyes,
Seeing every fault in me, and hearing all my lies..
Will He love me if He knows me, bad outnumbering the good..
Does He forgive me when repeatedly, I don't do what I should?
When He sees me, am I beautiful, although He knows my flaws?
And does He compare me or accept me, when held up to His laws?
When on purpose and when wittingly, I pass up what is right,
Does He feel like I am worthy of His help within my life?
Is it He that sits there hating me, when I'm letting all things fail,
Or is it my reflection blinding me inside this jail?
Will He give me hope to remedy aspirations that I've lost?
Will He lend a hand in times of need, when broke, free of cost?
I know the answers to these things, and I don't know why I ask.
When I just present the question, He's NEVER failed to meet the task.
