I put your scripture away

Pre Chorus:
How many times have I given up on my Lord and everything He told me
I don’t know why I lost the faith that I had at the beginning
If I don’t read the Bible I will not be ready to take a stand for what is right
When I realized that You are all I need to survive this rollercoaster ride

Chorus:
I put your scripture away and I put the Bible up on a shelf
When I put your scripture away and said I would follow you some other day
I realized the mistake I made when I looked for the world to save me
I cannot believe that I gave the world a chance to crush me

Verse 1:
I know that you want me to grow in my walk with you
I am trying to put your scripture in my heart
It is really hard to live your word in my life
When I put your scripture away

Verse 2:
It hurts me to see your Bible on my shelf
I can’t look at anyone in the eye, without them seeing me cry
It hurts me so much that I may be living for myself
Then I read it again and I see the reason that you died
