Dreams really can come true!
“Dreams really can come true”
*I often look back at my younger self and think, oh, if she could see me today!
If I had the chance to tell her what I know now, what would I say?
Things are much different now than they were back in the day.
*You see when I was young I didn’t have your typical dream
My life wasn’t always what it seemed
Some days all I wanted to do was scream.
*There were times in my life I didn’t think I was going to make it.
There were days where all I wanted to do was quit.
You see I had trauma that needed healing, but I never wanted to admit.
*I thought that I could do it all on my own.
I never wanted any of my pain to be shown.
So I thought, I had to go through it all alone.
*Truth was there was always someone by my side.
He stood there with his arms open wide.
All I had to do was lay down my pride.
*You see pride is a deceiver, it makes you think you can do it all.
Truth is it just puts up a wall.
Eventually you learn, that the burden is too much to carry, and you fall.
*That’s what happened to me.
I fell down right on my knees.
Praying to God to forgive me, please!
*I had felt so worthless that I never thought I could be loved.
God said to me, my daughter you are beloved.
Your sins are forgiven because of his blood.
*Jesus gave his life so that I could be saved.
So that I no longer had to live a life of being enslaved.
His sacrifice and forgiveness makes me feel amazed.
*So here I am today.
I stand here to say, all will be okay!
With Jesus, you will find your way!
*Your dream to be loved and to be free is available for you.
I’m here to tell you that you will make it through.
With God he makes all things new.
*Dreams really can come true!
It can happen for you too!
So never give up on your pursuit!
