Words to ponder...

I was listening to Todd Agnew and thought these words were definitely ones to ponder:

Stopping at another red light
And a man with a sign
Wants my money and time
And I decide he’ll probably buy a beer
Probably doesn’t even live here
Probably has a house with a pool
But I’m just making excuses, excuses

Love your neighbor
Doesn’t ask me if I fully understand
Doesn’t ask if he’s a working kind of man
Love your neighbor
Is a little about him
Probably more about me
But it’s a lot, a lot about You
Love is a lot about You

God, You know she used to be a friend
But that came to an end
When the truth began to bend
She lied to me, I guess she broke my heart
And I don’t know how to start letting this go
It’s just so hard to forgive

Love your enemy
Doesn’t ask me if she has apologized
Doesn’t ask me if I see things through her eyes
Love your enemy
Is a little about her
Probably more about me
But it’s a lot, a lot about You
Love is a lot about You

You want me to finally be
A reflection of You and You are love
You want me to finally be
A reflection of You and You are love

Love your neighbor
Doesn’t ask me if I fully understand
Love your neighbor
Doesn’t ask if he’s a working kind of man
Love your neighbor

Doesn’t ask me if she has apologized
Love your neighbor
Doesn’t ask me if I see things through her eyes
Love your neighbor
Is a little about them
Probably more about me
But it’s a lot, a lot about You
Love is a lot about You
It's a lot about You.

And another one:  "The One You Want"
The One You Want I can’t let You see me this way.  
How could You love me in my shame? 
  I felt, ‘God, I’m filthy again.’  
Still I hear You call my name.  

It’s hard for me to believe I could be lovely in Your eyes, 
that I’m really the one You want. 
It’s hard for me to believe, 
You would want me by Your side, 
that I’m really the one You want.  
I’m really the one You want.  

I wish my stumbling finally would end.  
But, I need Your mercy once again.  
I’ve shed these tears so many times.  
Still, You pick me up and hold me tight.  

It’s hard for me to believe I could be lovely in Your eyes, 
that I’m really the one You want. 
It’s hard for me to believe, 
You would want me by Your side.  
I’m really the one You want.  

And, You love me, You love me. 
You love me still. You love me. 
You love me, and You always will.  
You will. 

 I’m really the one You want. 
It’s hard for me to believe I could be lovely in Your eyes, 
that I’m really the one You want. 
 It’s hard for me to believe, 
You would want me by Your side.  
I’m really the one You want.
