I Really Don't Deserve You
By, Anne Taylor
I’m not a
perfect person.
I stumble and I
trip and I fall.
I try to be
good, I really do,
But sometimes I
can’t do it all.
I know the
difference between right and wrong
I know the
choice I should make
But sometimes I
choose wrong over right
And afterwards,
my heart breaks
All I want to do
is be perfect for You.
All I want to do
is be Yours.
All I want to do
is make You smile.
But these
bruises of imperfection make me sore.
I’m sorry for
hurting You like this.
I’m sorry for
making You sad.
I’m sorry for my
faults and my doubts and my fears
I’m sorry that I
am so bad.
I don’t deserve
You, I really don’t.
I never really
did.
You suffered for
me, You died for me,
All because of
my sin.
You love me
perfectly
With a love I
can’t comprehend
You gave me an
infinitely intimate Atonement
A love that has
no end.
You served the
justice that I should have bore
You suffered and
bled and died
So that later
You could show me mercy
When I pleaded
and begged and cried
I don’t deserve
You, I really don’t
But that’s
something You just dismiss
Because You love
me so much more than I know
That’s just the
way it is
You were there
when I celebrated
You were there
when I mourned
You were there when
I praised you in joy
You were there
when my heart was torn
You were there
when I hurt
You were there
when the days were long
You were there
when I was happy
You were even
there when I did wrong
So I really
don’t deserve You,
I never really
will
But I hope You
know how much I love You
I always have
and I always will.
