I believe in You
And then I don’t
I trust in You
Then I get scared
I waver and doubt
I mess up and hide
I don’t cling to You like I should
I rest in peace
And then I wake scared
I cry to You
Then I turn away
I stumble and fall
I don’t live like I know I should
Take imperfect me
Keep me close to You Emily Acker
