Cory Asbury - Dear God Lyrics

Dear God,

I’ve been trying awful hard to make You proud of me

But it seems

The harder that I try the harder it becomes

And I feel like giving up

Most of the time

Dear God,

I’ve been chasing their approval and it’s killing me

And I know

The more I to try to prove

The less I have to show

And I’m stuck inside my head

Most of the time

If I pray a little harder 

If I follow all the rules

I wonder could I ever be enough

I try and I try

Just to fall back down again

And I ask myself why

Do I try to chase the wind

I should lean into the mystery

Maybe hope is found in a melody

So I wanna try again

Yeah, I’m gonna try again

Dear child,

I hope you know how much I love you and I’m proud of you

Please believe

The thoughts I have for you will never change or fade away

When you felt like giving up

I never did 

I’m not scared of imperfections

Or the questions in your head

Just know that you have always been enough

You tried and you tried

And I saw you wrestle with

Every how, every why...

I was right there listening

So just fall into the mystery

I’ll meet you in the melody

So please try just to try again

So child would you try again

My child you can love again
