God Gives

I finally realized it,
What I’ve been doing wrong
I’ve been searching for something,
That was here all along.
 
I’ve been looking everywhere,
Abandoning my wits in passing,
For something so close,
That I could have upon asking.
 
I wanted an answer to a prayer,
A steady hand to hold,
But God’s plans were bigger,
I wouldn’t have believed it if He told.
 
God was there all along,
But I ignored His pursuit,
I didn’t want His love,
I believed my own reproof.
 
I wanted that boy’s love,
I didn’t care what the cost,
But when all was said and done,
It was Him that I had lost.
 
I felt alone and scared,
Shattered from the loss,
I had no one to turn to,
So I turned to the cross.
 
God welcomed me with open arms,
And took that boy away,
I realized I could live now,
In God’s arms I was to stay.
 
So God took that boy away from me,
And gave me something new,
Something beautiful and perfect,
And that something was you.
