Safe

I bought the new Natalie Grant cd "Relentless" over the weekend. She has a song that captures me on her album. Most of you know that Joey & I have struggled with infertility for about 7 1/2 years now. I have written about it on this blog in the past but it is easier to do that than talk about it in person because I don't have to see someone staring into my eyes with a look of pity or confusion as they don't know what to say. It is almost too painful to talk about with people in person because I have to choke back the tears as I try to hide my true feelings. I don't want people to see that I am vulnerable. I have to stay strong, for them...at least that's what I tell myself.

There is one person I can be completely open with though. I don't have to hide anything. Only He can heal my soul and it is only with Him that I am safe.

"Safe" by Natalie Grant

How did ya know
That I'm all alone
Today
Oh I feel so scared
And I want to go
Away
I bleed so deep underneath
My soul is screaming

I'm not gonna hide
I'm not gonna run away
I'll uncover the scars
And show you every mistake
Your love is mending the blisters
And the bruising shame
Here with you
I am safe

Drowning the tears
Won't make it go away
It's robbing my soul
I'm taking this mask off my face
To discover love
And uncover all
It means to live and breathe

I'm not gonna hide
I'm not gonna run away
I'll uncover the scars
And show you every mistake
Your love is mending the blisters
And the bruising shame
Here with you
I am safe

When you uncovered
I discovered
That I am not afraid
But when we're hiding
We're only fighting
To be sane

I'm not gonna hide
I'm not gonna run away
I'll uncover the scars
And show you every mistake
Your love is mending the blisters
And the bruising shame
Here with you
I am safe
