Father,
the One True God,
as it pleases You,
You will reveal Your purpose in me.
Help me live each day to You
in humble servanthood and love.
I desire to follow You
to honor You
and everything You gave
so that I could know You.
How I long to see Your face!
This world is so far from You
and the freedom for which You set us free,
Yet it is all part of Your wondrous plan.
Your workings are too great for me to fathom
and life is so confusing;
You have graciously left Your Word for me
and filled me with Your Spirit
so I may understand those things which
You desire to show me.
I thank You
and praise You endlessly
for Your sacrifice and grace to me.
I, who deserve nothing,
have been given everything and more,
to be called a son of the Living God!
May I never forget it
and grow weary of Your calling.
May my desire ever be for You.
Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
The world is a dark and weary place,
yet Your light shines from the hilltops.
Create of me a beacon
burning bright in Your name.
I long for Your redemption of Creation,
but I know Your timing is perfect
and I bow my knee
to Your holy and perfect will.
