Needing to Change

Needing to change
to see with God’s eyes
the truth of our failing
the tears in God’s eyes

Wanting to have us
to come to him
answering his call
knowing how often we turn
running from his arms

Needing to change
to feel our neighbors pain
rejoicing whenever they come to God
receiving the crown of life
wanting only the best for them
the grace of the living God
not judging anyone unworthy
the Lord God loves them all
