A poem I wrote for a friend of mine who was going through a difficult time in her life.
Girl, I can see the hurt and pain in your eyes.
Try so hard to hide it, but those green eyes don’t lie.
I know those secret things keep you up late at night.
Those things you did wrong, when you wanted to do right.
Those things you’re not proud of, that only brought shame,
Crossed that line of innocence and you’ll never be the same.

Scream.
Cry.
Shout.
Just let go. Let it all out.
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.
Laugh.
Sing.
Rejoice.
Praise God. Lift up your voice!
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.

Girl, you’re so much different from the girls that I know.
They live to please man and are called “whore”, “slut” and “hoe.”
Men of this world don’t see you as beautiful, instead call you hottie.
They don’t really care about you; they only care about your body.
Don’t fall for the smooth talking seduction that fall from their lips,
They can’t offer you true love, only sexual tips.
You don’t deserve that, you’re worth more in His sight.
Sanctify your body and learn to live right.

Scream.
Cry.
Shout.
Just let go. Let it all out.
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.
Laugh.
Sing.
Rejoice.
Praise God. Lift up your voice!
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.

Girl, it hurts me to see you hurting this way.
My words escape me, not sure what to say.
Don't take the same road I journeyed down.
Feeling secluded with no one around.
That road is dark, twisted and it’s lonely,
It deceives you into feeling like it’s you and God only.
But you have people that truly care if you just let them in.
We all have our pasts that are laden with sin.

Scream.
Cry.
Shout.
Just let go. Let it all out.
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.
Laugh.
Sing.
Rejoice.
Praise God. Lift up your voice!
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.

Girl, I wish I could hold you and say it’s alright,
But, it’s Christ the Redeemer you need to be with tonight.
Lay it at His feet and get this off your chest,
For it was He who said to the weary, "in Me you’ll find rest."
Run to Him, seek His face, to God be the glory,
He already knows what is contained in your story.
Be healed by His hand and heavenly touch,
Because you have been forgiven, He loves you that much!

Scream.
Cry.
Shout.
Just let go. Let it all out.
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.
Laugh.
Sing.
Rejoice.
Praise God. Lift up your voice!
God loves you girl, you know this is true; and never forget I’m here for you too.


Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.
~Matthew 11:28-30 (NLT)
