| UNWANTED CHILD Unwanted child, a look of despair The tears just flow, no love, no care I look upon this sad little face My heart goes out, I want to embrace His face hangs low, hides a blow to his head This poor little child, wishes he was dead All he has ever had, was a kick and a shove He has no understanding of the word, true love Many children suffer this kind of abuse Don’t turn your head, and think what’s the use Help is there if people are prepared To take the time and make others aware We can make a difference, by giving our support By showing that we care and make sure that we report Each child is a blessing, no matter where they’re from They all need our love and a place to belong © Natalie Price February 2009 |
A MOTHER’S CRY My new born baby, my precious child I have waited so long, it’s be awhile Nine months of nurturing in my womb This beautiful baby, like a flower in bloom Years have gone by, with loving care Why does life have to be so unfair? My beautiful child, has turn to a life full of sin Where did I go wrong, where do I begin? Alcohol and drugs, rule my child’s life All that is left is suffering and strife Swearing and cursing is all I hear Now I live in constant fear I pray for the day, when he changes his ways Please God help him and teach him to obey My heart cries out in anguish for my child The darkness surrounds him He continues to be wild Let him go devil, you are so vile Peace in his heart is what I pray for Show him your light that opens the door Stop his nightmare, forevermore © Natalie Price February 2009 |
| ABORTED CHILD The silent scream of an unborn child Being aborted, this is so vile Believe me the fetus feels the pain Denying this is more to our shame The fetus does not expel in one go Part by part the procedure is slow A suction instrument is used for this job The babies life has just be robbed You think you can put this out of your mind Oh no you can’t, its such a crime The years don’t wipe out the memory of it all It haunts your dreams, it’s so cruel Forgiving yourself is not so easy The recall of it all makes you feel queasy Thank God, for His mercy and His grace Forgiveness is given, He takes the disgrace © Natalie Price February 2009 |
GOD GAVE ME MY MIRACLE Pregnancy should be a time of elation A seed has be planted, a new creation Alone I was and very depressed The father didn't want to know, I was in a mess Two other children, without their Dad The same old story, it's so very sad How can a parent act that way? Leave his family, he didn't want to stay Dumped and discarded like dirt under his feet I felt so sick and found it hard to sleep I thought of adoption, my head was in a spin This terrible action, I just couldn't win Mentally not coping, each day I would cry Behind close doors, I just wanted to die I cried my eyes out to my Lord I need a miracle, my tears just poured The Father smiled, that is my child You'll have your miracle in a little while © Natalie Price February 2009 |
| WORTHY OF NOTHING My husband, made me feel worthless His treatment of me, was even less Accusations, they were so untrue A hell of a life of what I went through Our House, was never like my own He made that clear, I felt so alone Each afternoon he would start to drink I hated the smell, he really did stink The more he drank; you could see it in his eyes Blackness surrounded him, he was full of lies Swearing and cursing, he carried on When will it stop, it’s been so long Each day that went by, I asked myself why I lived in fear each afternoon Boy did I hate the feeling of gloom If I said a word, all hell would break loose His hands around my neck, it felt like a noose Out comes the knife, he threatened my life I would run outside and go and hide Praying to God, that he would die Forgive me Lord for what I say I go through this every day Please God just take him away © Natalie Price February 2009 |
LUST IS NOT LOVE You’re driven by your hormones and not your heart I feel so dirty, I feel like a tart Laying naked on the bed, This is so wrong, I’ve been mislead You tell me things I want to hear To have your way, you’re not sincere Perverted in your sexual lust I look at you in utter disgust You say you love me, to make me feel good The truth of it all, you never could You’re never interested in what I do All I ever hear is all about you As far as your concern, I am always wrong My flesh is weak, I am not that strong All I want is love and affection What you give me is like a dirty infection This is not love; I know it in my heart True love it pure and it never departs. © Natalie Price February 2009 |

PRIDE
GOT IN THE WAY I was suffering deep inside I refused all help, because of my pride Sharing my sorrow, what will they think? Suggest I need a doctor or even a shrink Fighting and arguing day after day What are they thinking, what would they say? Neighbors would see, I just wanted to flee Their eyes would watch me as I went up the street I felt even worse, I started to weep Hiding my eyes so no one could see I hid myself behind a tree The shame I felt, made me feel ill I guess they thought I was a bit of dill My abuse was a burden I didn’t want to share Because I believed that nobody cared. © Natalie Price February 2009 |
BULLYING
THE WEAK My little grandson, has cross eyes He often comes home from school and cries The kids at school can be so cruel Teasing him, he feels like a fool Sometimes he sits all alone His face looks sad, he is on his own Why are they so mean to me? And call me nasty names I try to be so nice to them They won't let me play their games At home he seeks attention By doing naughty things He gets so hard to handle By going on one big binge The anger that he feels inside It does not go away The kids at school who bully him Make him feel this way It broke my heart to hear him say Why did God create me this way? I told him he was special God has a little plan To teach him many things Before he becomes a man Sometimes we have to suffer To be able to understand Bullying abuse can hurt real deep Affects your confidence, And makes you weak © Natalie Price February 2009 |
| GUILT AND SHAME I TOOK MY BLAME Years of suffering in my darkest hours My mind twisted by Satan’s power The evilness that had entered my being Stopped my conscience from ever seeing Abused by those, I thought that loved me I felt so numb, where could I flee? My burdens were heavy, please can’t you see Many times I pleaded, but nobody wanted to hear Maybe they were scared too, I really have no idea Guilt and shame plague me, day and night Powerless in my senses, my God this is not right I would shut my door and go and hide My heart was broken, I just cried Haunted by my guilt and shame Struggling; with my thoughts of blame. © Natalie Price February 2009 |
THE YEARS HAVE TAKEN ITS TOLL Plenty of friends, yet I feel so alone Nearly everyday that goes by, is on my own I do have family who I go and see But at the end of the day there is still only me My lack of confidence comes from years of abuse Tormented by rejection; I think what’s the use I hate being asked, what I’ve achieved Feeling worthless as I do, I almost can’t breathe Very embarrassed, because there is nothing to tell A life of misery that was nothing but hell Humiliated by my own lack of knowledge I did try hard when I went to college So many times I nearly gave up I felt so miserable, almost corrupt The way I was thinking was not good at all So angry for being dumb, I felt so small Not many people knew the misery I was in I hid it so well, my face showed a grin Never encouraged, when I was a child All I did was rebel and go wild I still feel I cannot integrate well Sometimes I wish, I was fish in a shell The years of abuse has taken it toll Thank you Lord, now that you’re in control © Natalie Price February 2009 |
| MY SONS My sons are two gorgeous looking young men A few times their lives nearly came to an end Abused by their father, both in different ways They lost all hope and wanted to end their days So depressed they couldn’t cope For them, they could see they had no hope These beautiful boys that I love so much Felt unloved and so out of touch They would not seek help, they lacked all trust And couldn’t fit in, or adjust Drugs and alcohol took over their lives The horror of it all was no surprise I spent many years with alcohol abuse I knew the consequences of that use Fear took over my life everyday I wondered often if my kids were ok My youngest boy was craving for attention He slit his wrists, and ended up in detention I prayed so often, and read God’s word His promises don’t fail and I know He heard. © Natalie Price February 2009 |
EMOTIONAL BULLYING Sometimes I feel like screaming Oh please God this cannot be real Is this a nightmare or am I dreaming He doesn’t care how I feel Vicious names day after day Always put down, no matter what I say Nothing I do is good enough for you Even when I’ve tried you make me cry You accuse me of things that I’ve never done I’ve lost all respect, this is no fun You lie and cheat and you don’t think I know I never thought anyone could sink that low Crushed in my spirit, I hardly laugh Please dear God, take away this wrath Mentally exhausted, when will it end This battle keeps going, I really need a friend © Natalie Price February 2009 |
| TAKE
ACTION NOW The expression, words can't hurt you in any way That statement used is so wrong, this is what I say Wicked words are like a curse Spitefully used to make you feel worse A bad word brings discouragement A good word encouragement Swearing shows no respect for anyone's ears They think they're so impressive I wish they would disappear Users are abusers, you don't need them anymore Get rid of them completely, right out the door Don't put up with their physical blows Go to the police, and have them exposed Threats of violence is what they used Fear and terror as they abused If you're so frightened, to seek the help that you need Your grief will prolong, your tormentor will go free This is a criminal act, take action now We don't need these types out on the prowl It's a cowardly act, they are so foul © Natalie Price February 2009 |
HARASSMENT Harassed at work and at home Why be so cruel, please leave me alone How rude can you get, she had no respect Each day I dreaded going to work Distressed as I suffered the words of a jerk I had no choice but to work with her She felt she had power and used it to stir I did my job well on the bus with the kids She put her brakes on and I did the skids The children were jolted in their seats I almost fell over as she drove round the streets We're suppose to work as a team The handicap children, on the bus just screamed I reported to the boss, all that she did A waste of time, because she fibbed It was her job to pick me up on the way Most of the time that was ok She picked on me as soon as I got on board And slammed the brakes on, I landed on the floor Abuse of this kind is really a crime I left my job, I felt I was robbed With my confidence gone, all I did was sob © Natalie Price February 2009 |
| MY HEART, I GAVE TO MY LORD The years of suffering have taken their toll But now I am positive and have a goal Life goes on and I want to achieve I had too many lost years And too many to grieve Time heals, the pain subsides I live in peace and no longer hide Happiness I thought was so far from my reach A dream come true, I now live near the beach Each day I go out for my lovely long walk No longer afraid of being stalked People smile and say good day I’m so happy now, I’m on my way The secret of my wonderful joy I gave my heart to my Lord The best thing I’ve ever done He gave me my life, the battle is won © Natalie Price March 2009 |
MY PRAYER, THIS IS FOR
ALL OF YOU Oh Mighty Father of heaven of earth Help these victims, get back their worth Reveal to them your wonderful power To destroy the evilness, that has turned so sour Bury the bitterness, the hurt and the shame Replace it with, your glorious name The suffering endured, has been so wrong As they stand to their feet, please make them strong Show them the path, your guiding light Walk with them each day and night Get rid of the venom, which destroyed their trust Burn it with fire, until it is dust Spread out your wings, healing their wounds Pick up the pieces that are in ruins Teach them forgiveness, so they can forgive And forgive their sins, so they can live Release them from their life of despair Give them hope, so they know that you care They’re a special part of your creation Through your Son, they have their Salvation © Natalie Price March 2009 |
| THE LORD, HE RESTORES The enemy destroys, the Lord He restores Jesus smiled, and opens the doors He brought me through one by one Each hurdle I crossed, the battle was won Sometimes I marvel at what God has done My life was a mess, but now it’s fun Hope is there, He hears your cries He wipes the tears away from your eyes The scars that were left, have disappeared My Lord, He took away my fear This darkness that surrounded me Has been replace by His light I’m now on the right road, to my delight The word of God tells us, we belong to Him No matter what I’ve been through He has taken away my sin I never thought my faith would grow Oh Lord I was wrong, but now I know A new creation I have become Believing in You, my life has begun © Natalie Price March 2009 |
HIS REFUGE Take shelter under the shadow of the Almighty The Lord does not take anything lightly He wants to protect and care for you All you have to do is asked Him too You can reverse the curse, put Jesus first Your heart will change, you will no longer thirst Seek His help now, He will always listen Believe in Him and become a Christian He always answers, all of our prayers His promises are true, as His word declares God is our refuge, our deliverer, our strength He will walk with us, as we tread the extra length He is our shield, our weapon of defense The victory has been won, he ended the offense I’ve been cleansed so clean, as white as snow The devil has been defeated, in his hell below. My Lord, you gave your life for me Your love and peace has set me free © Natalie Price March 2009 |
| ABUSED AND ACCUSED JESUS IS HIS NAME A crown of thorns, stuck on His head His heart is breaking, as He was led They whipped and gashed His flesh till it hung He walked the path we should have been on Drops of blood fell of His brow The blood just flowed, no use of a towel Mocked and spat on, it would make you ill It’s hard to imagine this was God’s will He took our pain, shame and suffering, on the cross For me and for you, the accused and the lost Sinless in His own life without a crime He gave His life instead of mine Nailed to the cross in agony of pain Forgiving all, He took our blame Upon Himself, He took our sin He invited us all, to believe in Him. © Natalie Price March 2009 |
FEAR NOT, THE LORD IS WITH THEE Fear not for the Lord will destroy your enemies Their tongues are full profanity As they speak out all their blasphemies God will saved you from their wickedness And take away all your bitterness I know from my own experience The devil attacks at his convenience He strikes you when your heart is weak A cowardly assault, he is a freak The Lord, He gave me strength to fight His shield of protection that shone so bright Through my suffering, I’ve learnt compassion I’ve drawn closer to God and I love with a passion Believe me; I tried to do things my own way But it didn’t work, I went astray When you’ve done what you can and all else fails Remember Jesus, the cross and the nails His blood was poured out, to make you well © Natalie Price March 2009 |
