Doubt
By Rebecca Mukangu
Life seemed grim
Interest lost in everything I did
State of uncertainty
Painful, Oh very much
I prayed, wishing it could just go away
Questioning my prayer ability
I fall to my knees
Close my eyes and pray to thee
As tears of pain fall down my face
If you are who you say to be
Please take care of me
Please make this pain go away
Wanting to talk to somebody
but don't quite know how
Can't carry the burden on my own
Oh please Lord help me
Feeling like I'm just not good enough
All I hear is negativity
Little by little, my heart is breaking into little pieces
Oh please Lord help me
Give me the strength to go on
Give me a heart that forgives
A heart that loves, just like you love me.

What To Do
By Rebecca Mukangu
What do you do when all the loved ones have given up on you?
Oh it hurt so bad as tears of sadness flow down my cheek,
I look up and all I want is somebody to hold me,
Somebody to tell me it'll be okay,
Somebody to tell me they understand
I have friends, but none that see the pain in me,
The chains are gone, but am I free?
When will my freedom come?
I might be weak, but I’ll not be easily broken,
The one who lives in me is much, much stronger
