Masks

The LORD declares, Am I a God

who is only nearby and not far off?

Can people hide themselves in secret places

so I might not see them?

Don’t I fill heaven and earth?

Jeremiah 23: 23-24 CEB

The truth is we all wear masks.

We hide our hurt

We hide our fears.

We hide our dirt.

We hide our tears.

Yes, we all wear masks.

We hide our pride.

We hide our lies.

We the doubt that’s inside.

We hide soul sighs.

Yes, we’re all in a masquerade.

We hide our lust.

We hide our sins.

We hide hour distrust.

We all keep it in.

God sees our true selves.

He loves us still.

He wants to break down the walls.

He loves us still.

He’s waiting on us to answer his call.

Let us step out from the masks.

Let us allow His love to shine through.

Let’s Give the world a smile.

Let’s express His truth.

Let’s try hope for a little while.

Let’s stop hiding behind masks.

It’s time to be free.

It’s time to let it all go.

It’s time to walk in victory.

It’s time to let it all go.
