August 17, 2011

There's a piece of ice I've kept in me
I hide it away so no one can see
Its made of walls I've built inside
That mask my troubles and show my pride
And every time someone gets close
I push them away and on I go

People cannot melt this ice you see
I put it away buried in me
It keeps something hidden deep inside
That was given to me by my Guide
I do not let anyone come near
Because it is their love I fear

How can someone love me at all
When every day I try and I fall?
I mean the best in all I do
But again and again it all falls through
You cannot melt this ice that hides
Away inside a secret prize

Oh but what is this I see?
Someone gave their life for me?
He has shown His perfect love
And He still holds me today from above
My eyes looking up are filled with tears
And I no longer know where to find my fears

I grasp my chest as my heart is filled
My insides no longer are chilled
He melted the ice that lived in me
He made me who I am to be
He took away every single fear
Now the ice is melting into tears

As I look deep within a prize I find
He has put a precious jewel inside
A diamond He made so perfect and rare
Put it inside of me how He dare?
He loves me more than I can know
And with this diamond that He shows

I will show my diamond to the earth
So they can know of the birth
That saved the world from its own sin
The punishment we deserved to live in
I will show my diamond with humble pride
Because He has changed me from the inside.
