I know your name...

You know, the world may not see your game.
You may never be shrouded in shame.
But I know your name.

You may try to move on with your life.
You may lie to your families, your wives.
But I know your name.

You can follow me from place to place.
Your actions you may have tried to erase.
But I know your name.

You think you lucked out, you got away.
I am here to tell you that there will come a day.
And I know your name. God knows your name.

Have you ever....

Have you ever found yourself in a valley so low, you were drowning in water? playing in black oil? or looking Satan right in his eyes?

Have you ever found youself crying so hard you forgot to breathe? your heart hurting so bad your body begin to ache?

Have you ever been surrounded by people, yet felt completely alone? Felt like trust for others was an unattainable feat?

Have you ever felt so worthless, so devoid of value, that killing yourself gave more effort that you deserved?

Have you ever feared so much that your mind refused to sleep? felt so much anxiety that you couldn't digest food?

Have you ever hated yourself for hating others? Have you ever tried to forgive but couldn't make your heart comply?

Have you ever prayed hoping to find faith again? Have you ever hoped for the ability to pray from the heart again?

Have you ever been murdered? Raped? Beaten? Criticized? Ridiculed? Persecuted? Tortured? Drugged?

Have you ever wondered about the world we live in? Questioned how people could be so cold? So callous? So selfish?

Have you been so estranged from God that the idea of church brings a fitful burst of tears and weeping?

Have you ever wondered what is below hell because you've already reached there?
