Your Child


i see a picture of You and wonder why
why did You have to die in that way
all of that pain for me
all of my imperfections and flaws
everything i've ever done
You died to forgive me

the world sometimes gets me down
the lies seem to never end, and the pain is great
it's hard choosing between right and wrong
but through it all i know no matter how i mess up
i am Your child

i look agian at the picture of You
suddenly i understnad, You died for me and everyone else
through the valleys and mountains
You're always there to say it's fine
to reassure and keep me going
it took me a long time to get that You chose to die
You chose to take away my sins
but most of all, You chose me as Your child
