Love Me

I love this song by JJ Keller.  It explains how I felt most of my childhood.  But it's amazing how the ending is what my heart knows. Love it and I hope you love it too!

 

Love Me

JJ Keller

 

He cries in the corner where nobody sees
He’s the kid with the story no one would believe
He prays every night, “Dear God won’t you please
Could you send someone here who will love me?”

Who will love me for me
Not for what I have done or what I will become
Who will love me for me
‘Cause nobody has shown me what love
What love really means

Her office is shrinking a little each day
She’s the woman whose husband has run away
She’ll go to the gym after working today
Maybe if she was thinner
Then he would’ve stayed
And she says…

Who will love me for me?
Not for what I have done or what I will become
Who will love me for me?
‘Cause nobody has shown me what love, what love really means

He’s waiting to die as he sits all alone
He’s a man in a cell who regrets what he’s done
He utters a cry from the depths of his soul
“Oh Lord, forgive me, I want to go home”

Then he heard a voice somewhere deep inside
And it said
“I know you’ve murdered and I know you’ve lied
I have watched you suffer all of your life
And now that you’ll listen, I’ll tell you that I...”

I will love you for you
Not for what you have done or what you will become
I will love you for you
I will give you the love
The love that you never knew

The Sweetest Love

My name is Renee Clark and I am new to blogging.  My blog title is one that I hold dear to my heart and I believe with every ounce of my being.  I am a singer/song writer and my title comes from the title and lyrics of one of my songs.  Truthfully when I started writing this song, it was to my husband but realized as I got deeper into writing, the truth became clear who it was for. I want to share this song with you so you may better understand who I am.

The Sweetest Love

Many times I have fallen, into the wrong of this world.

Jealously and anger, fill the center of my life.

Why can’t I lose the evil within my heart?

Why can’t I be who You want me to be?

Take this life and rescue me.

And the sweetest love, that I’ll ever see

Is standing there in front of me.

No matter how long it takes,

I will prove my love.

Cause without You my life’s incomplete.

Why can’t I see, Your love for me.

Pride and my power trap me in and tear me deep.

To where I should not lead life to be.

Take all of me and change my ways.

And the sweetest love, that I’ll ever see

Is standing there in front of me.

No matter how long it takes,

I will prove my love.

Cause without You my life’s incomplete.

If I could look beyond the black and the white,

And see my Lord standing by my side every day.

Life would be so easy, knowing You will never leave me.

I will break these chains and let Your love flow through my veins.

You are the only life I’ll live.

And I won't be afraid to love the Lord.

I won't let this world pull me down.

You won't let life fail on me.

Because in the end I will be troubled

If I've miss what You've planned.

And the sweetest love, that I’ll ever see

Is standing there in front of me.

No matter how long it takes,

I will prove my love.

Cause without you my life’s incomplete.

And the sweetest love that I’ll ever see.

Could only be You.
