Statement of Faith (feat. Ben Smith)

God Hold me near All my thoughts Make my head unclear I pray For your peace In my heart Turn your face All of the thoughts in my head I don't want no one to know I don't want to exaggerate (No) Some days i feel at an ultimate low And to the God that I'm praying Oh why am I praying (Why) Sometimes i feel like I can't feel you Is it something to do with me Did i make you not pleased (How) Are you ignoring me Honestly i'm feeling trapped (ya) I know i'm a sinner I scream I'm sorry (I'm sorry) Now I know feeling is dangerous that's not how faith is defined (no) Its based on belief Way way deep down inside God I know you're there for me So give me eyes to see You You All of this pain in my life (ya) Making life harder to like You ever been in a place Where you can't look at yourself in the face And tell it i love you Quick to give grace to others Never apply that standard to self No longer see life in colors Kinda sounds depressive Maybe I'm dealing with some sort of depression I don't know Always hated the labels Its just another way to be let down Cause if people don't follow through Or live by the truth I'm left With my heart out there Without anyone to receive Its not a great place to be Now this is where i've been hurt in the past Now i just keep my heart to me Scared to let anyone see God I know you're there for me So give me eyes to see You You How many verses can I write About being in a bad mind state Look out my window I may be feeling down out and low The reason we fall is so we can learn and grow Faith is easy when you feel God with you But true faith is trusting him when he ain't right there Its taking a step and not being afraid to stumble Knowing he'll catch you This song is my statement of faith Now i know i don't always pray when I should On my own strength i feel like i could have endured But God this me saying i trust you Trust is a thing that's been broke in the past It happened when anyone left, but I know you will last God I ask That you will keep my eyes on you That you will help deliver me through Oh oh God I ask For you Oh oh I love you God I know you're there for me So give me eyes to see You You That you will keep my eyes on you That you will help deliver me through Oh oh God I ask For you Oh oh I love you Rapping about all of these things Ya it's helping me deal with some pain Its one thing to say your lost in the past Its another to say your current state's bad I know I love my God But when its difficult to love myself I pray for you to come I'm looking up God i ask That you would shape my mind Help me be more like you Help me set my faith in truth Help me raise my arms up high Help me see you love for me Help me seek you in all that I do Help me seek you whenever i walk through The valley of the shadow of death Help me fear no evil Amen
