As For Me
by
Barbara Philbrook
I was lost,
steeped in sin,
when a stirring inside I felt begin.
I developed a
hunger I could not satisfy,
I searched for answers not even sure why.
Suddenly what
shrouded the truth from me,
was taken away and I could see.
I was guilty of
committing sin,
I was being offered salvation if I'd just let You in.
"Believe in
your heart, say it with your tongue,
I've been saved by God's own Son".
I understood and
by grace believed,
I called out Your name and salvation was received.
I now surrender
daily Dear Lord to Thee,
so You can do Your good works through me.
It is my most
sincere endeavor,
to serve You Lord now and forever.
I wish to
surrender all that I am,
to serve our Father in the Great Master Plan.
May my words
invite others to take part,
as they too invite You into their heart.
May others
looking in my direction,
instead see Your most perfect reflection.
May my mind ever
be stayed on Thee,
striving to share the truth for others to see.
May I commune
with Thee day and night,
so that all that I do will be good in Your sight.
On my own I am
nothing at all,
but due to you Lord I can stand firm and tall.
Sharing with the
world what You did for me,
hoping they too will accept what You offer for free.
I simply sow the
seeds You've placed in my heart,
then I stand back and let You do Your part.
I know any good
coming from me,
is done by the Spirit You provide so bountifully.
So open the
windows of Heaven today,
pouring forth Your Spirit in abundance I pray.
I thank You Lord
with all my heart,
and gratefully receive all You wish to impart.
