The Way You Love Me

*****I write with a heavy heart today. Albeit, I have much to be grateful for. I never forget that. This is one of my favorite songs. It is so true for many periods of my life. I haven't lost it all right now, but, I could if I keep doing things my way. So, it is time to let go and give it up to Him. Realizing that tears are not a sign of weakness, for me.....Ms. Independence, I can do it all by myself, I don't need any help, I can do it on my own.....tears are a sign to me that I am gaining strength.***

The Way You Love Me - Anthony Evans

This heart breaks slowly tells me “what are you doing to me?”
When I prayed, do what it takes
I didn’t know I’d lose everything

Everything that meant anything to me was gone
Something right has to come from this wrong

It is the hurt that breaks me
It is the pain that pulls me to my knees
And the tears, they’ve changed me
To what I couldn’t see
Become so clear to me
This is the way, the way that you love me

My way destroyed me
I couldn’t see I was my worst enemy
So you took away, till my soul ached
And I knew it was no mistake

Everything that meant anything to me is gone
Something right has to come from this wrong

It is the hurt that breaks me
It is the pain that pulls me to my knees
And the tears, they’ve changed me
To what I couldn’t see
Become so clear to me
This is the way, the way that you love me

You loved me so much that you let me, you let me fall knowing that I would lose it all and hear your call
You loved me so much that you chased me, when I ran away you captured me by letting me run
To the end of myself, to the end of myself

And this is the way you love me
The way you love me

It is the hurt that breaks me
It is the pain that pulls me to my knees
And the tears, they’ve changed me
To what I couldn’t see
Become so clear to me
And this is the way, the way that you love me

This is the way you love me
