241108 Invisible

 Invisible 

Do you ever feel invisible

Like you are not seen at all

That if you walk into a room

You blend into the wall

Feel you're taken for granted 

They do not see all you do

Yet, if you didn't do it

Heaven knows they would blame you

Do you feel that you're invisible

And your thoughts carry no weight

Perhaps they care about you

Though you've not felt it of late 

Yes, we all want to be noticed 

To be seen as having worth

To know that there's a reason

We've been placed upon this earth

Doesn't mean want to be famous 

And that strangers know our name

But, since we can value others

Can't we expect just the same

Yet, what if we're invisible 

All because we've made that choice 

Choose to blend into the woodwork

Not to exercise our voice

Perhaps this kind of treatment's due

To what we tolerate 

As if our value and our worth 

Are open for debate

For, even those that love us

Might behave as we've allowed

So, if we don't value ourselves

Might not express feelings aloud

Our God, who is invisible 

Sees all that we do and feel

So to him, we're not invisible 

He sees us as a big deal

In fact, we are worth dying for

And that's just what Christ did

Thus, nothing 'bout God's love for us 

Is invisible or hid

So stand up straight, and shout aloud

I am a child of God

I'm valued, seen and worthy

Then hear all heaven applaud
