The Sin
of Pride
by
Barbara Philbrook
Sin of
pride be removed from me,
from within every crevice and cavity.
I desire
to surrender all that I am,
to serve my heavenly Father as much as I can.
I desire a
heart that's pure through and through,
that I may one day see God's glory that He wants me to
view.
I can not
do the cleansing that's needed.
I could only invite the Lord in as I knelt and pleaded.
I asked
Him to accept all of me,
and change me into what He wants me to be.
I sought
the truth and acted on faith.
He entered my heart, there was no wait.
I now
belong to Jesus, God's only Son.
He died on the cross and the victory He won.
He's doing
the work inside my heart,
and promised He'd not stop what He was quick to start.
I'm being
changed by the One I chose to reside
deep in my heart where sin used to hide.
Sin of
pride you'd want me to boast,
but all the changing's being done by the Holy Ghost.
