Forgetting Faith

lyric

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 months ago • 1 min read

Verse One
I lose my steady ground when my anger takes control,
Forgetting God is present and trying to guide my soul.
And each time I let frustration tell me what I should say,
I show I do not trust Him and that He will lead the way.

Verse Two
When judgment shapes my words, I turn my heart from what is right,
Assuming I see clearly when I’m only hiding from His sight.
And spreading gossip only proves my ego thinks I know His rightful plan,
Even though God has said such wisdom isn’t mine to command.

Chorus
Forgetting faith is how my heart goes wrong.
Forgetting faith is why my fear grows strong.
But remembering faith is how I keep God's truth.
Remembering faith is all my heart needs to do
Cuz forgetting faith is how my heart goes wrong.

Verse Three
When I forget His truth, I only close the door
Treating what He teaches like it’s something I can ignore.
Disrespecting what is sacred only breaks my soul inside,
For faith is how I learn to walk in what is truly right.

Bridge
Let go of every burden,
Let go of every pride.
The heart stays close to heaven
When faith becomes our guide.

Final Chorus
Forgetting faith is how my heart goes wrong.
Forgetting faith is why my fear grows strong.
But remembering faith is how I keep God's truth.
Remembering faith is all my heart needs to do
Cuz forgetting faith is how my heart goes wrong.
Yes, forgetting faith is how my heart goes wrong.
