No addiction, no flaw
No matter how far you fall
He will take your brokenness
And mend it all
Surrender today
your futile attempts
Ask Him to rescue
And come to your defense
His love is great
His Spirit breaks chains
His grace covers shame.
Surrender to faith
In His unending strength.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Matthew 11:28-30
Although His timing may be different
He works everything into his picture
We are here to be moved at His will
We just need to keep trusting and be still
May my joy be found in You
On the long and scorching days
May Your peace overrule
When despair says there’s no way
May my heart learn to wait
When patience has all but gone
May my lips continue to praise You
When my ears can’t hear the song
Your eyes see ahead
Your hands hold all the cards
You’ve made and erased all the rules
You’ve let me taste your heart
So when You ask me to be still, I will
Lest I err in my own way
I’ll take life slowly, let it unfold
And keep waiting with you today
“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.” Aristotle
So let me embrace the difficulties
that feel unending
Until in me their full work is done.
For You know the plans You have for me
And the blessings will come
once the battle is won.
Don’t give me earthly wisdom
Opinions flood in by the multitude
No the only wisdom I want
Is that which comes from You
