The Story of a Girl

Broken and tired,
Shamed and defiled,
A girl with no future, no hope,
A girl all alone.

Choices gone bad,
Friends no longer on her side,
A girl that doesn't understand.
She's all alone.

They look at her jeans, torn and battered
They look down at her shabby clothes.
Those Pharisees...
Won't they show her love?

They walk by, not saying a word.
why should they? she thinks, her hopes again slashed.
I'm just a girl, a girl all alone.

A group of girls, Bibles in hand,
walk by her, laughing and talking.
They avoid her, step around her without a word.
these girls, she thinks, used to be my friends.
I'm truly all alone.

She sits on the road, head in her hands,
Why, why did I let this happen?
Why, why am I all alone?
No one cares for me, any more...

A hand touches her shoulder,
she looks, but no one is there.
Confused, tired, and scared,
She looks around to see who's there.

Nothere, no one here,
I'm still alone.
She feels arms wrap around her,
and a voice talks inside.

I'll carry you through, I carry you.
Just trust Me, I'll carry you through.
I love you, battered and broken,
I love you, shamed and defiled.

Just trust in Me, I'll carry you.
I won't leave you alone.
Through the good times, the worse times,
I'll be here for you!

No longer are you alone,
I love you, My broken rose.
I'll nurture you back, back to health.
Cause I love you, I love you so!

Just trust in Me, I'll carry you.
Just trust in Me, you'll not be alone.
Just trust in Me, I'll carry you.
I love you...I'll carry you.

Her eyes closed, tears running down,
I'll trust in You, I know You're there.
I don't have to be alone...

A hand touches her shoulder,
She turns, expecting the emptiness again,
Standing there is a girl,
A girl with open arms!

I'll help you through,
I'll love you.
I don't want you to feel alone.

There is One for you,
He'll carry you.
He'll hold you close, loving you.
You have a special place, down in His heart!

God loves the WHOLE world. Not just who we want to love or think should be loved. "For God so loved the WORLD that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life" John 3:16. World means everyone...
Who have you shown love today? Or...who have you walked by...not even acknowledging their presence...
Show others the love of Christ. Let someone know that they are loved.
