Look around you
I am here
In every sound
The sun shining down
The summer breeze
And winter’s freeze
In drops of rain
The ocean’s water
This light of the day
The dark of night
I am here
Wandering lost
Falling down
My heart cries out
“My Lord, where are You?”
I can’t do anymore
I can’t be alone
Why did You leave me
To crawl upon my knees?
The pain is too much to bear
The price way too high
No way I can pay
Oh my God!
Please see me
Look around you
I am here
Reach up your hand
I will help you stand
I have never moved
You chose to live in you
Where I’ve been
I will always stay
Little one,
I am the way
But dear God
Don’t You see
All that is
In front of me?
It is my burden
My suffering
You don’t listen
Look around you
I am here
Open your ears
So much I’ve spoken
You don’t hear
So much I’ve shown
You choose
To be alone
You knew Me once
You turned away
In My sight
You’ve always stayed
Okay. Maybe it is true
When I cried
Where were You?
You say
You are love
Why do I see
Emptiness above?
I feel unworthy
The world is filthy
I don’t belong
Where is my song?
Open your eyes
My precious child
See what I have done
The man who dies
Is My Son
For you I have given
all that is golden
He is My Only Begotten
He takes voluntarily
Oh you,
My favorite creation
Why do you choose damnation?
Here is My Child
To take your life’s vile.
All of your pain
He is the cover
For any rain
Look around you
I am here
Lift up your hand
My Son helps you stand
Every moment of your life
I hold you in My light
Nothing in return
Do I need
I want you
Just as you need Me
Look around you
I am here
In every breath you take
In sleep and when you wake
My Son I gave to you
For you He cries, “Abu!”
Child of Mine
Open your eyes
I surround you
In every morning light
And the dark of night
A summer’s breeze
I give you peace
You are one of many
I still know
When you need Me
Never unworthy
Always with Me
Jesus said
It would be so
Look to Me
I know where to go
Look around you
I am with you
Would you have survived
Without Me in your life?
I felt your pain
I planned you that way
It doesn’t seem fair
I would give you such despair
But I formed your heart
I know your part
You had to suffer
In order to offer
The strength I gave you
Look around you
Always I’ve been with you
I know you’re angry
How else would you know Me?
I made you strong
Because the road is long
You will not fall
The Son in you is tall
Look around you
I am here
With each step
You must look up
In the sun and in the stars
Mirrors only of My light
Look around you
I am here
You are not alone
I am waiting
Waiting to welcome you home.
