NEAR YOU

Lord God I wish I were blue

Like the skies and blend in near you.

But I'm not, I am black

Troubled, and my hearts out of whack.

And even though I grab a hold of sin

You never let go you took me in.

I still faded in life like trash 

Thinking I'm saved by having cash.

I put my life into a rut

Beginning as an acorn to a complete nut.

I followed my own wishful thinking

So like the Titanic, I too, was sinking.

What can I do to turn this around

Must I die first and go underground?

Lord, I need to come back to you

Though now I don't know what to do.

But where I'm really falling through

Is when to you I don't stay true.

So now I'm wishing I were blue

Like the skies and blend in near you.
