The art of being nobody
By: Carole L. Haines
Exhausted…Wasted so much time trying
Being someone you think I could, Doing things you say I should
Get out of my mind, You’re under my skin
I’m closing my eyes, And you’re not welcome within
I am who I am…Whatever God makes of me
Is completely His choosing, So now I am truly free
Religion behind me, now, Trying to reach God
I’m believing He has reached me now, Thru the blood and the cross
One step at a time, Overcoming the pain
Learning to walk, No longer crippled or maimed
Take up your mat and walk, Open your mouth and talk
Awaken your eyes to see, Run fingers thru the hidden deeps
Nobody, Nothing, Nowhere is so inviting, after trying to be
everybody, everything, everywhere
I run straight into the arms of the Only One who’s really there
Deep thoughts, deep breaths, Long walks, short steps
Meandering, wandering, Living through the dying
No longer denying, Embracing what I’m finding,
Freedom from the trying To be somebody
the art of being nobody… Apart from Christ, nothing
Letting Him be strong in me, Suddenly I’m truly free
