Dear God - Acoustic

Dear God
 I've been trying awful hard to make You proud of me
 But it seems
 The harder that I try, all the harder it becomes
 And I feel like giving up
 Most of the time
 Dear God
 I've been chasing their approval and it's killin' me
 And I know
 The more I try to prove,oh the less I have to show
 And I'm stuck inside my head
 Most of the time
 But if I pray a little harder
 If I follow all the rules
 I wonder, could I ever be enough?
 'Cause I try and try
 Just to fall back down again
 And I ask myself why
 Do I try to chase the wind?
 I should lean into the mystery
 Maybe hope is found in a melody
 So I wanna try again
 Oh, I'm gonna try again
 ♪
 And dear child
 I hope you know how much I love you and I'm proud of you
 And please believe
 The thoughts I have for you will never change or fade away
 And when you felt like giving up
 I never did
 'Cause I'm not scared of imperfections
 Or the questions in your head
 Just know that you have always been enough
 'Cause you've tried and tried
 And I saw you wrestle with
 Every how, every why
 I was right there listening
 So just fall into the mystery
 And I'll meet you here in the melody
 Try just to try again
 Oh child, would you try again
 My child, you can love again
