Restored

Written at a time when I thought I was going to lose at least a couple of friends.

I didn’t know it then/when we stopped talking for a bit/really upset me because I didn’t think I did anything wrong/Lots of long nights/crying in my bed/trying to reason out/what I did wrong/trying to plead with God/to bring them back to me/and trying my best to not be upset at myself any longer/

As it turned out/we both needed some time apart/and as it would happen/it turned out that my perception of my friends/was not what it was supposed to be/and it would tear me apart for a while/until we both ready to reconnect/a song that would remind me of what was/I decided to send them/each one had a special meaning to me/

You could’ve taken them away/never to return to my life again/and while it still would’ve stung/it would be part of a bigger plan/a plan to redeem the brokenness with in me/but even if I would’ve lost my friends/I know in my heart/that I will never lose you/and that you’re right beside me/

You exchanged my broken heart/with the knowledge of knowing you will protect me/the promises that you have spoken/and the hope you offered me when you chose me/to be your child/the love that you had back then/hasn’t changed now/but it feels deeper/because I have experienced it more/
