Belief for the T.E.E.N

I’ve heard this all before, not news to me

All this talk about that I shall be free, free indeed


Hey man! What makes you think I’m tied up

Didn’t you hear the Beatles sing, all you need is love


I’m my own man, nobody has a thing on me

This is the living, living wild and free


They look at me with such remorse and grief

I don’t need you, take your pity, your little attempt-to-talk and leave


If that be the truth, I’ll find out in my own time

Why you so worried! I think I’m doing just fine


Everything’s been tried, they’ve run out of ideas

The straight talk, the let-him-be and the listen-now-my-dear


I’m different I know I am, all this Christian stuff’s not for me

Don’t bore me with your sermon, please just let me be


No one understands, no one takes the time

Everyone thinks, being this way is the worst crime


Nobody spares a thought for me anyway

I feel I’m just living from day to day


I don’t have the strength to stand up, be different

So I’m like ‘em all, almost anybody can be my friend


I’d like to be convinced, to be assured

But everyone thinks I’ve got a disease without a cure


Think of me as normal, someone please

Stop it all from crumbling; everything’s that inside of me


Stop by and show me by your life, the man you believe in

Show me how He giveth you victory over sin


Will I come around; time will tell

In the meantime, with patience and without judging, try with me to gel


For He will have all repent and none perish

Appointed for the day of my salvation a time there is


Will you manifest Jesus to me

I ask of you, Please

Will you for me, that promise of Salvation believe


The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some count slackness; but is longsuffering to you-ward, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.   2 Peter 3:9

This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.   1Titus 2:3-4
