All On The Table

John Lee


Life and struggles have carried you this far..
You don't know where you are going, or if can even go anymore..
While the bottle of pills are shaking in your hand, wondering if you should just crash this car..
Crying and dying, your tired of living a life of war..

No one understands you, a red light shining on a life that's blue..
Abandoned while young, a way of surviving it's not a life of fun..
Searching how to give it all up, for just a moment of love..

Who would love you?
Who would forgive you?
Would anyone ever, want to just sit and listen?.
Or maybe just hold you?

Let me tell you about a friend of mine, He'll come inside your heart and dine..
He's seen the road you're on before, you don't have to live it anymore..

I promise He's heard it all, and He's gave His all..
He's sitting there, awaiting your call..
Come and lay it all on the table, He'll take it away because He's able..

He's seen your every tear, and now He's drawing near..
You hate that life and He's got a new one..
Receive it and don't look back, because you'll live for the true one..


This isn't just some fable, just lift it up to His table..
Let Him show you, that He is able..

I know it's hard to believe, because you can't see..
It was hard for me, but in Jesus I found strength..
And I know you are able..
Because He's still with us when we're weak..
Just put it all, on His table..
Live free and don't turn back..
Just leave it all, on the table..

  • Comment from author about the poem: We all fight wars inside ourselves, knowing how we've betrayed Jesus that has paid the price for our wrongs.. On that cross, He forgave us, He gave it all because He loves us. He's a call away, He accepts us and forgives us. Call out and put it all on the table, leave it. Live for Him and He'll live in us.
