Selfless

1st Draft

In All This

Looking for a reason Through every season I'm finding out that I've been drowning in myself Giving but only to get Praying that they would forget

You can't be forgiven without asking for forgiveness You can't give without giving up something And you can't live for someone if you can't look past your own image

Stuck in my own mind Trying to find a way out It's only through the one who lived and died that I can throw away my pride

It's so hard to imagine that I've been forgiven for who I've been But I let myself go as it happened

In all this I've learned that I must become selfless so I can clean up this mess

2 Draft

Selfless

Looking for a reason Through every season I'm finding out that I've been drowning in myself Giving but only to receive Looking for something to believe

You can't be forgiven without asking for forgiveness You can't give without giving up something And you can't live for someone if you can't look past your own image

Stuck in my own mind Trying to find a way out It's only through the One who lived and died that I can throw away my pride

As I gave Him my heart He began a work of art, mended what was broken, transformed it into a beautiful garden

In all this I've learned I must become selfless So that He can relinquish this mess
