I gave half of my heart to Jesus
And the other half wallows in doubt
Casting dark shadows over my soul.
Why does the road always seem crooked
When the Bible tells us that it is straight.
Is it because I can’t read the map clearly.
Why are my every-days so dark and gloomy
When God’s love shines with such a bright light
That only requires opening the shutters.
Biblical verse is awash in enigma;
Where one place orders that you must stand tall
And another proclaims that you need to bow down.
The half I committed is safe and contented
The half that is doubtful is lost and alone
The two halves at battle have left me immobile
For neither has won and only I lost.
