Hiding From Myself

I haste,

I haste,

To find a place,

A place beneath,

In this game of hide and seek,

Hide me from myself,

Make me into someone else,

A heart that is 180 degrees to my mind,

Myself I hid, now I try desperately to find,

I travel where my desires are greatest,

No, not where my Father say is best,

Hide me from myself,

Make me into someone else,

Fear and shame,

Give me a new name,

I detest it,

I dislike it,

Who I am and who I have become,

I can no longer hide,

I must ride my tide,

My thoughts

My mind

My secrets

My stuff

Though not perfect

A seed of righteousness is in me

I am God’s promise for someone’s dream

I must fulfill it

I must live it

I am bringing this game to an end

I want to be free, Jesus is my friend

I am in it, to win it

I am in it, to win it

(God loves us just as we are, come as you are, bring all your broken pieces, bring it all to Jesus, He is calling, He is waiting)
