THREE LETTER WORD

Three-letter word
How can it grab my mind?
Three-letter word
How can it snatch away time?
A book of sixty-six, I look for answers on the quick,
But no matter my search, my query rests on my shoulder perched.
"Why?'

A three-letter word,
powerful enough to distract.
A three-letter word,
Feels like it reminds me of what I lack.
Going through this valley, falling down off the mountain.
I want to climb it again, but I'm still searching for the fountain.
You know, the one that springs forth life,
The one that makes the dry bones shake.
My bones are dry, but the only question my mind seems to make...
Why?

I've determined to get
To lettered words of four or five.
Words like LOVE and GRACE,
If I can grasp them, I will survive.
Why am I beat down, better yet, why am I alive?
Am I worthy of the blessings,
Outside of the fact that I strive?
I can't see an answer to it,
Everyone tells me I'm alright.
I guess God's not angry
that my mind replays the "why?"

I know Jesus told Thomas that there was more,
Everyone acts like he chastised, him,
But I don't see that like before.
He acknowledged his belief, but talked a blessing.,
For those who could not see yet believe,
Isn't that a measure of faith professing?

Three-letter word, no it can't be my end.
I won't be left in this rotation,
But I'm not sure how to begin.
Three-letter word, no, it can't get the best of me.
You see, I know how to silence it,
Every time I pray on my knees.

So, yeah, I have doubts, that often lead me into fear,
But I've got to remember, that the four and five letter words are near.
LOVE and GRACE they are for me too,
So when I feel confused, I just need to remember the LOVE and from WHOM.

Three-letter word, well, I guess it is what it is.
Three-letter word, thank God I know who Jesus is.
