Compiling God's Code

The Lord gives.
The Lord takes.
He fills my soul

You keep me wanting more.
I am just a stupid man.
Please, give me
that
which I don’t deserve.
Keep me lonely.
Keep me depraved.
Keep me a beaten man.

that
which I don’t deserve.
Glory comes
to those that follow You.
To me… sacrificed it all.
No no no, I still want
that
which I don’t deserve.

Are we the part of God that gets forgotten?
The heart that knows God
must be of love
that’s what we’re taught,
but maybe, we know His other side.

His lonely side
that was before the now
that developed all there is
that craved to create
that had Him write the code.
