EVEN STILL...

Even Still...

I have hurt you, and I have lied.
I have stumbled and should have died.
You wept for me each time I tried
to fix the hole within my heart.
With things that angered and shamed you so,
and drove us further apart.
After all I have said and done,
Why did you love me still?

There you were with love and kindness.
Guiding me through the dark and blindness.
I would have died a thousand deaths
to avoid the sadness that you felt.
A look of sadness I have placed in your eyes,
each time I cried.
How could you want me still,
when I had lost all will?

Now everything is said and done.
You have lifted me up and
I have seen the Son.
You have enclosed me in your arms,
loving and protecting me from all harm.
At last I have found a place,
and soon I will look upon God's face...
The one who loves me even still.
