So that I will have a stronger relationship with God,
And so that I will become a better person.
Now my heart, mind, and soul,
Are peaceful and kind.
I love everyone around me
And hate no one.
I trust in Jesus
To guide me through life
In His light.
I had a bad attitude
Before I got to know Jesus.
I was first priority
In my own life.
Now I wish to help others
Before even considering myself--
Yet that attitude still comes and goes as it pleases.
That attitude makes other people see me
As the person I used to be,
Rather than the person I am trying to be,
The person that is kind, peaceful, and in touch with God.
Because of that attitude,
I still have that old reputation
Of being a trouble-maker--
That reputation I once lived,
Is now keeping me from living.
