Lemons

I know what happens to me
Does not happen by chance
There is a reason why
Good things happen to bad people
And bad things to good people
But then I think again and begin
To realize that maybe
Everyone is not as good
As they would want themselves to be.

I believe there's such a thing
As perfection but none can attain it
I do place my hope though
On the only One who has
But then again, I'm still imperfect
Flawed, blemished, broken
Sometimes I can't wrap my head around it
So I lay down my reason and submit
And learn to trust in the truth
Even if the world tries to slander it.

This is why no matter how difficult
Life may become or how harsh
Things may get, I will endure it all
Because I know that the things
That happen to me are being worked out
For my good, even if they seem bad
But they help me grow and learn
I have learned to trust and put my faith
In the One who gave it to me in the first place.
