a little's enough

When all is said and done
Will we still feel pain inside?
Will the scars go away with night?
Try to smile for the morning light
It's like the best dream to have
Where every thing is not so bad
Every tear is so alone
Like God himself is coming home to say

I, I can do anything
If you want me here
And I can fix any thing
If you let me near
Where are those secrets now
That you're too scared to tell
I'd whisper them all aloud
So you can hear yourself

Green trees were the first sign
The deepest blue, the clearest sky
The silence came with the brightest eyes
And turned water into wine
The children ran to see
The parents stood in disbelief
And those who knew braced for the ride
The earth itself then came alive to say

I, I can do anything
If you want me here
And I can fix anything
If you let me near
Where are those secrets now
That you're too scared to tell
I whisper them all aloud
So you can hear yourself

I'm sorry I have to say it but you look like you're sad
Your smile is gone; I've noticed it bad
The cure is if you let in just a little more love
I promise you this, a little's enough

Sometimes I forget what i stand for. I forget what it means to be saved. I forget that the reason I don't do drugs or sleep around isn't because I'm legalistic, but because I want to avoid addiction and idol worship.  I forget a lot of things. God loves me despite the alcohol, despite the swearing, despite all of it.  I need to tone it down not because God is angry with me, but because I'm losing focus.  I'm the happiest I have ever been, but I keep forgetting who I really am in God.
