A letter to God Lyrics – Theinvisiblegirl90
[Intro]
Dear God, I know you love me
Dear God, I know you love me
At least that’s what I tell my heart
I know you’re somewhere in my life, even when I can’t feel where you are
[Verse 1]
I know you keep me every day
I know you make a way somehow
But God, I’m asking you for something
I need you to show me now
I’ve been asking for your voice
I’ve been asking you to speak
Not because I don’t believe you’re listening
But because I need you close to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna hear you say my name
I wanna know that you are near
I want something I can’t explain
Something that makes it crystal clear
I’m not asking for what you give everybody
I’m asking for something just for me
Something nobody could take away
Something that only you could be
[Chorus]
God, I need you to show me
I need to know you’re here
I know you say you’ll never leave me
But sometimes I need to feel you near
[Verse 2]
I don’t need another sign from somebody
I don’t need another voice in my head
I need something that could only be you
Something that makes me say, “That was God, and nothing else”
God, I need you to show me
Because you are all I have
And I’m tired of saying I’m okay
When inside I’m asking how much longer can I last
[Verse 3]
I don’t have a daddy to call, he left before I really knew him
My mother is still here, but sometimes I don’t feel like her daughter
I have siblings, but I still feel alone
I have people around me, but nobody I can really lean on
Nobody I can call and say, “Please come sit with me”
So God, when I say I need you, I hope you understand
I’m not asking you for everything
I’m asking you to take my hand
[Pre-Chorus]
I need you to say, “Daughter, I see you”
I know how they’ve treated you
I know how they’ve used you
I know how much you’ve cried
And I’m still right here with you
[Chorus]
God, I need you to show me
I need to know you’re here
I know you say you’ll never leave me
But sometimes I need to feel you near
I don’t need what you give everybody
I need something personal to me
Something nobody could explain away
Something only you could be
[Verse 4]
Oh God, I need you to show me
Because you are all I have
I’m tired of doing everything alone
I’m tired of always having to be strong
I’ve asked you for guidance
I’ve asked you what to do
I’ve waited for an answer
But sometimes I still don’t hear from you
And life doesn’t always give me time
To sit and wait for a sign
Sometimes I have to make a choice
And I wish you would tell me which one is right
I’ve made mistakes, I know that I have
I’ve made some choices that I wish I could take back
But God, you know my heart
You know I’m trying to do what’s right
So when I don’t know which way to go
Please be the light in front of me
[Bridge]
How much longer, God?
How much longer do I wait?
How much longer do I have to carry
Everything that’s on my plate?
I’m tired of putting faith in things
And watching them fall apart
I’m tired of praying for something
And wondering where you are
But I’m still talking to you
So I know I haven’t let you go
Even when I don’t feel you
Somewhere inside I still know
I still believe you love me
I still believe you care
I just need you to come closer
I need to know you’re there
[Chorus]
Show me, God
I need to know you’re here
I know you say you’ll never leave me
But sometimes I need to feel you near
I don’t need what you give everybody
I need something personal to me
Something nobody could explain away
Something only you could be
[Verse 5]
I need my own miracle
I need my own moment
Something that makes me look around
And know nobody else could have done it
I’m not asking you to give me everything
I’m not asking for a perfect life
I’m asking you to let me feel your love
In a way I can’t deny
[Outro]
Let me know I’m your daughter
Let me know, let me know that you see me
Let me know that I’m wanted
Let me know that you need me
Because sometimes I feel so alone
Even when I know you’re there
And I don’t want to doubt you
I just need to feel that you care
So if you don’t speak through a voice
Then speak to my heart
If you don’t show me everything
Just give me one little part
Give me something so undeniable
That I’ll never have to wonder again
Something that makes me say, “God did this, and I know it wasn’t me”
Dear God, I’m still here
I’m still talking to you
I’m still waiting
I’m still believing
I don’t know how much longer I have to wait
But I need you
