God, I’m Hurt
God, I’m hurt I said, "God, I’m hurt" And God said, "I know" I said, "God, I cry a lot" And God said, "That is why I gave you tears" I said, "God, I get so depressed" And God said, "That is why I gave you sunshine" I said, "God, life is so hard" And God said, "That’s why I gave you loved ones" I said, "God, my loved one’s dead" And God said, “I watched mine nailed to the cross" I said, "God, your loved one lives" And God said, "So does yours" I said, "God, where are they?" And God said, "Mine is on my right and yours is in the light" I said, "God, it hurts" And God said, "I know"
