Once

Once you claimed to be one of my children

Swore that you would love Me to the end

Did the things people expected of you

But you lied to Me

You lied to Me

Frequently my word is spoken to you

Ears that hear but

Never understand

Voices sing but never share

My joy or my pain

I cried for you

How I

Cried for you

And I loved you

Even though you drove the nails into my hands

You cursed my Name

But still

My love

Remains

Yes you were faithful to my church here

Maybe even taught in Sunday school

Knew your bible fully

But would not bow before Me

Away from Me

I know not you

Away from Me

I know not you
