Unfaithful
My love for you
It grew and grew
My passion never waning
To be with you
To hear your voice
It was so very sustaining
I’d wait in the quiet
All alone
So no one could interrupt
Our solitude so important to me
I would never give it up
My thoughts of you in everyway
Were as common as my breath
Don’t ever take away your love
For it would be my death
You helped me through
Such troubled times
And my grief you did bear
You shored me up and steadied me
I always felt you there
Then without reason
Without rhyme
My visits shortened
I gave you no time
And before I knew
My focus switched
My heart became untrue
To the one who always gave of himself
I put our love on the highest shelf
I didn’t need it anymore
My time elsewhere was demanded
Things were going oh so well
I knew you’d understand it
But I still loved you very much
No one would ever doubt it
And I knew I’d get back to you
My word on this you could count it
One lonely day
A feeling of sadness
Tried to overwhelm
I called to you please come to me
And fill my heart with gladness
And you as faithful as before
Your love it filled me and so much more
My tears they did start to flow
As my unfaithfulness to you I came to know
My Lord Jesus you are always there
All my burdens you gladly bear
Why I can’t be consistent with my time
Is a battle that rages in my mind
Thank you God for loving me
When I’m faithful
When I’m selfish
You never withhold your love from me
That I might live victoriously
And know that I will always strive
To keep my faith and spirit alive
Psalms 89:2
For I have said, “Lovingkindness will be built up forever;
In the heavens You will establish Your faithfulness.”
