Sometimes

Sometimes

Sometimes we have to pick ourselves up, because nobody else will, 
Sometimes we have to build walls that nobody else can build,
Other times we let people in the barriers of our shield, 
And sometimes we break down our wall without first being healed. 
God, give me the strength to fight another day, 
And change my mind when my heart stands in the way.
Sometimes we struggle after we fall,
Sometimes standing alone is better than having nobody at all. 
Thank you God, for taking over when I was ready to give up and break down,
You waited patiently til I was ready to be found,
I give to you my breath, I give to you my all, 
Thank you for standing here waiting for me to call,
Sometimes we must let go of what is only extra weight, 
Other times we give up before it's too late, 
And everything good in us, turns to hate. 
Thank you God, for being my strength.
