Irreplaceable

I have a confession to make,
I've been trying to live life my own way.
The stress of it all seemed a lot to handle,
and my sanity was the price to pay.

Lord, help me to remember
I'm not meant to do this on my own.
You have the answers for the questions I seek,
you know my words before I can speak.
God, you paid the ultimate sacrifice,
sending your son, so we may have life.

I'm giving it up, my worries & fears.
My joys & my praises, because you are all ears.
I've come to find hope in all that I do,
to leave it on the table, because there is none like you.

Time

They always say time is the answer
they always say time is your friend
but I feel time is running out &
I'm right where I began.

You always have a dream growing up
the way your life is going to be,
but the hands on the clock move too fast
and so far reality differs from those dreams.

The older I get the more I see
time is not my friend, in fact, it's my enemy.
Sure, older & wiser outweighs young & naive
but I feel time has stripped away my purity.

My child-like view of the world is gone
the older I get the more aware I am of what really goes on.
Lord I pray with all of my heart
this world I live in will not jade my heart.
