| "The Great Pretender" My Jesus knows every heartache I have had. He knows when, inside, I am blue and feeling sad. I put a big smile upon my face, just like a clown, Smiling while everything comes tumbling down ... Acting like everything is going right when, for so long, I live in darkness; never seeing daylight. My Jesus knows when I am lonely and He knows each pain. He understands when I am vain. I painted my life as picture perfect, all the while I am fooling nobody but myself. I have hidden my heartaches and put them on a shelf I stopped pretending, long ago, and asked Jesus to supply all my needs. I am rewarded for every good and faithful deed. The great pretender I am no more. Jesus healed me and, with Him, happiness is in store. He satisfies, my every need supplied. That's why He went to the cross and why He died. � 2003 by Nancy Hoback http://my.homewithgod.com/hoback/index.html |
