When I Kneel Before You

I will kneel before you
You will see at me at the gate.
I will be wearing a white robe when I get there.
I can hardly wait.
I have to ask you all these questions
And I know you will explain every little word
I need you to answer me
I need to be heard.
What is complex to me.
Is easy for you.
But thank you for caring in all that we do.
I pray every night to you as I call out your name.
Because we are all human and don’t do things the same.
Every religion says they are the truth.
I’ve grown up with me knowing the right way to believe
All through my youth.
Its hard to know you when I stumble and fall.
Its hard to tell others to break down their wall.
I believe in you is easy to say.
I will let nothing ever stand in my way.
