I'm taking a history course this year, and I was supposed to write an essay on the reasons for success of Christianity. Enjoy!

I knew 당신 even before 당신 were conceived. Jeremiah 1:4-5

I chose 당신 when I planned creation. Ephesians 1:11-12

You were not a mistake, for all your days are...

You've been waiting here for me,
though 당신 don't push me at all.
You know exactly what I need.
But 당신 won't shove it down my throat.

You've been on my mind all 일 long.
I pretend You're not even there,
because I know my thoughts are wrong.
But I'll just keep pretending anyway.

When I finally call out to You
You come and tell me everything's okay.
You take time to make me new
though 당신 know I'll just push 당신 away.

I doubt I'll ever learn
This world's too big for me on my own.
Each time I try I just get burned.
But You're the One who will heal my wounds.

Just stop answering my calls
so that I will fall on...
