My Heart Is Breaking

It's been almost 12 months since I last posted anything up here, and I'm not 100% sure when my next post will be.  I also haven't written anything since the previous poem that I posted, so it's been a while and I have certainly missed writing!

I don't know that this is going to be quite what you were expecting when you read the title of this post.  While it does mix some strong emotions, these are the words I hear God crying out (hence why it's written in first person) to anyone, particularly those in a "Christianized" society, who do not yet have a personal relationship with Him.  These are the lyrics to my new song:  My Heart Is Breaking

My Heart Is Breaking

 V1

 You pass me by

As though I'm just not there

My Name you cry

Although you don't really care

Am I nothing to you?

Oh, why can't you see?

I gave all I am;

I gave all I have

For you on Calvary

C

My heart is breaking for you.

Won't you see Me standing here?

My arms are open for you.

I'm never far; I'm always near.

Why won't you turn from your own ways?

Live with Me for the rest of your days?

My heart is breaking for you.

V2

No other name

Saves, but the name of Christ

Only He can lead

Out of darkness into light

Won't you drop your burdens

At the foot of the cross?

Christ was crucified.

Now He's raised to life,

So that you could be free!

B

So just cry out,
And I will hear.
I feel your pain;
See every tear.
You are my child,
And I love you.
So call My Name;
Live life anew.
