You Used to Believe

I find it funny that the power of prayer is something you believed in

Now you can’t even look up to heaven to ask for forgiveness

The devil put you in a bad place - I wish I could be your voice of reason

But the truth is you have to make that decision

 

The times we had together are just faded memories

Time will tell how things stack up for you and for me

I’m glad we lived and laughed and loved at times

But change is constant and we each wanted different lives

 

Life ain’t easy - so I sleep with my regrets

Time is fleeting but you still find God hard to digest

I remember a time where you used to love God

I remember a season where prayed and felt delivered  

 

The person you are today is not the person you were meant to be

I’m not saying I know everything, but I’ll comment on what I see

You messed around with depression now it’s got you feeling empty

It’s sad for me to see you as a child of God who lost their identity

 

I pray for you that you would let God heal your heart

I was in the same boat as you but God’s grace pulled me out

The water only seems to get deeper the more you fight

But if you let God rule in your heart he’ll shine and you’ll be bright… again…
