Numb

Numb

I want to be numb
I want to feel nothing
I want the world to pass me by

I want to feel no pain
I want to feel no emotion
I want to feel nothing at all

When I am numb the problems I have are gone
When I am numb I feel nothing
Feelings hurt, emotions suck

The world says being numb is the best
They look to drugs and alcohol and much more
         To help forget their troubles and to ease the pain

God wants me to feel
He wants me to trust him
He doesn’t want me to be numb

Being numb gets me no where
Being numb keeps me in my sin
Being numb keeps God out                    

I want to feel the sorrow for my sin
I want to feel the pain I experience
I want to persevere through this life

I don’t want to deny what God can do
I will bring Him my pain
I will bring him my sorrow
I will learn to let him heal me

My sins make me numb to his Spirit
I will confess them to him
I will learn to walk like a free man

My attitude makes me numb to his Spirit
I will learn to be humble
I will learn to reflect His light

My shame makes me numb
I will learn to walk in forgiveness
I will learn to act upon his righteousness

God, help me feel
God, heal my pain
God, change my heart
God, hear my cry for help
God, be here when I hurt

I cannot live numb, it will solve nothing

Only God through prayer and faith can heal  and ease the pain of life
