Are You There…Here I Am

Where are you, oh Lord?
Are you watching over me?
Are you there when I'm awake?
Are you there when I'm asleep?
What do you think about the things that I do?
Do you think I should change?
Are my dreams going to come true?
When I pray to you, oh Lord,
do you actually hear me?
Or are you too busy
with other more important things?
People don't understand.
This world is so cruel, mean.
So how am I to follow you
if you don't make yourself seen?
So reveal yourself to me
Show me the real You
Let me see The One they speak of
Who's love is so true.

Here I am, dear child
I have never left your side.
I see everything you do
So please try not to hide.
Yes, I'm there when you sleep
And there when you're awake.
And some of the things you do
does make my heart ache.
Though I won't force you to do
anything you don't want to
If you take up your cross
your dreams will come true.
I will give you whatever
are the desires of your heart
And yes, I always hear you
Even before you start.
But first seek my kingdom
And leave the rest to me
I'm always with you
I'm never too busy.
I know how the world is
No one seems to have a care.
But I will never put on you
more than you can bear.
I reveal myself each day
just open your eyes
I made every single thing
The moon, the stars, the sunrise.
So open up your heart
Give me a place to dwell

And you will be another
Of my love, to tell
