There's a beast inside
Waiting to swallow our souls
Do not let it win

The mind is crazy
It can get away from us
If we allow it

When I wake in the morning
I know that through my struggles
God shows me calm
He speaks to me
To calm my spirit
Even everything else
Seems like it is going wrong
In the morning I wake
And though I might worry
God is always there
God wants to be there for you too
He wants to comfort
Allow him

There is enough hate
And pain in the world
We need to start
Thinking
A little more
About love
Learning
How to spread it
Learning
How to let love
Fill and guide you
Until hate and pain
Become a distant memory

We all need each other
It is very true
We all need each other
To help us see through
Enough with the divisions
Enough with the lies
We all need to come together
Of that I am certain
To make it through
The other side
We can 't afford
To continue
To hurt each other
We should be trying
To help and to heal each other
Loving from the heart
Seeing just how wonderful
And yet how fragile
We all are

When every one else
looked down on me
God saw the best I could be
God saw the wonderful potentail
That lay inside
No matter what anyone says
God sees you
He knows your hurt and pain
He sees you
The real you
You just have to see it
For yourself

Thank you
For my life
Thank you
For everything
Thank you
For giving
That inner light
For allowing me
To see it in others
I am grateful
For your guidance
Even when
I have fallen away
I am thankful
For the mercy
The grace
And the healing
You bestow upon me
Thanks for answering my prayers
Even if its not exactly what I thought
But more importantly
I want to thank you
For the love you give me
Everyday
