Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me,
let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.
Matt.16:24
Watching the morning-mist evaporate before my eyes
was a vivid image of this verse
What is your life?
You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
James 4:14
Makes us reevaluate our goals and motives,
doesn't it?!
Lord let my life, whatever be
Lift up a hymn of praise to Thee
And let my love, through deed and tongue
Be poured out in a servant’s song
Lord, let life’s labour be more sweet
In worship poured through hands and feet
Lord, let my soul-hunger be fed
Through sustenance of Living Bread
Lord, Thou the Potter, I, the clay
Oh, let me not despise Thy way
But in whatever doth betide
Let Thy peace the storm override
Dear Lord, this is my humble plea
Let Your Divine Light flow through me
Let Your love my flawed love refine
To make my 'light-house' shine, shine, shine
