Greater Story
The years of feeling alone,
All the time spent being the strong one,
Building up the brick and mortar,
The walls no one could ever knock down.
I thought I was safe,
I thought no one could get to me,
But the whole time I was crying out,
Break down these stubborn walls.
The love I had been missing,
The encouragement I never heard,
The family I never knew,
Suddenly I have it all.
No longer on my own,
Suddenly surrounded by love,
Family hugs and encouragement,
What more do I need?
Through amazing grace,
Forgiven by God,
Now living for Christ
And the Holy Spirit inside of me.
All those years spent searching
For a place in my own life,
The whole time not knowing
My place is in His Greater Story.
