My Life Still Lives On

"I do not exist, only you exist."
                                     ~mewithoutYou

 For you are all children of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness.
                                      ~1 Thessalonians 5:5

~My Life Still Lives On~

I deserve nothing.

I deserve nothing but the death that I am born with. 

I do not deserve the gifts and the mercy I am shown every day.

I am a child of the light.

I am a child that casts a shadow. 

I do not deserve the light on my life, but for some reason it is upon me.

I deserve death. 

I deserve Hell. 

But I have a God who looks at me and takes my death away.

I am a child of mercy.

I am child that hurts more than myself. 

I do not deserve the mercy in my life, but for some reason it is upon me.

In moments like these when I seem to have clarity, I weep.

I weep for the goodness

I weep for the pain. 

I weep for I do not know why He would save me, all because of faith.

As the day passes by and the clarity begins to fade

I sing the songs I always knew.

I sing, "God, my God, I do not deserve you.

I do not deserve your love

But I thank you, for you have won my life.

So I thank you, even though I do not deserve you."

I deserve nothing. 

You deserve everything. 

I close my eyes and pray my prayers

For my life still lives on.
