Name: End of the Day
Duration: P00H03M51S
Description: This experience revealed to me just how much my inner sense of well being was tied to the circumstances around me. If things were going well then I felt loved. Which worked for all of my life until this point. One of the gifts I’ve received in the course of this heartbreak has been the realization that I’m still loved, even when I’ve failed and lost what’s most dear to me.

This experience revealed to me just how much my inner sense of well being was tied to the circumstances around me. If things were going well then I felt loved. Which worked for all of my life until this point. One of the gifts I’ve received in the course of this heartbreak has been the realization that I’m still loved, even when I’ve failed and lost what’s most dear to me.

lyrics

Well good days and bad days they play with my mind
When I'm up I am loved, when I’m down I’m behind
That’s not a game you say that you play
Your love’s still the same at the end of the day

At the end of the day, I know that I'm loved
You’re with me and for me and God that’s enough
With nothing to earn now and nothing to prove
I’m held in the arms of a love I can’t lose

I catch myself thinking if I get this right
You’ll love me more, I’ll be clean in your sight
But You are not fickle and Your love is never swayed
By triumph or failure, by good or bad days

This self salvation project
Is exposed by my life shipwreck
Thank God this charade is over
In my failure I’ve never felt closer
