Be Kind To Yourself -- A song by Andrew Peterson

You've got all that emotion that's heaving like an ocean,

And you're drowning in a deep, dark well.

I can hear it in your voice that if you only had a choice

You'd rather be anyone else.

I love you just the way that you are.

I love the way He's shaping your heart

Be kind to yourself.

I know it's hard to hear it when that anger in your spirit

Is pointed like an arrow at your chest,

When the voices in your mind are anything but kind

And you can't believe your Father knows best.

I love you just the way that you are.
I love the way He's shaping your heart.

Be kind to yourself.

How does it end when the war that you're in

Is just you against you against you?

Gotta learn to love, learn to love, learn to love your enemies too.

You can't expect to be perfect - that's a fight you gotta forfeit

You belong to me whatever you do

Take a deep breath and believe that I love you.

Be kind to yourself.

Gotta learn to love, learn to love, learn to love your enemies, too.

A reminder to those who are suffering.

A reminder to those who are hurt.

A reminder to be kind to yourself.
