I Do Not Deserve

You do so much.
More than anyone else.
You gave yourself to me.
You love me so much.
And you beg me
to love you back.
You care for me.
You hate each tear that falls from my eyes.
Yet you cannot hate
any person.
You can't dislike the cause
of the tears.
When I am sad,
your heart breaks for me.
You have felt my sorrow.
My pitiful life is in your hands.
I am your creation.
I am ungrateful for all you give.
I even cause you pain.
How do you still love me?
You know I'll mess up again.
Yet you do not stop hoping.
I am lower than the dust.
I take up more space
than I am worthy of.
I am less than ordinary.
You are incredible, and glorious.
Lord, I do not deserve.
