You cry out to Me cause of suffering and pain.
You blame it on Me and curse in My name.
I reach out to you, I beg you to come.
You stare at Me blankly; your hearts growing numb.
In the beginning it wasn't that way,
I gave you perfection,I begged you to stay.
But you wanted more, you wanted it all.
Your heads got too big; then came the fall.
So I came back to see you; I walked in your shoes.
All you could do was call me a fool.
But I walked up that moumtain, I carried the load.
It wasn't easy walking that road.
You beat me, you cursed me, you called me a name.
You did not understand that's the reason I came.
I took all your sickness, your suffering, your pain.
I had everything to lose; you had it all to gain.
Just remember I love you
My words are still true.
All my dear children
I did it for you.
Love Jesus.
