Come, O Lord!

I've followed ten
commandments
to obey You,
read sixty six books
to learn Your plans,
I've worn Your cross
on my sleve and
played Your music
out of my speakers.
I've gone without food
I've gone without sex
I've gone without friends
because You were mine.
I've given ten percent of my finances
forgiven seventy seven times
served in Your Body
told others about You.
But none of this matters,
unless You change my heart.
I long for Your love.
I await the day when
temptation will cease,
when tears will be
of pure joy only.
I ask for
patience
endurance
forgiveness
Fill me with Your Spirit.
Create in me a pure heart.
I want to love You,
because You loved me before
I turned my back on You.
I want to know You,
because You knew me before
I opened my eyes in blindness.
I want to see You
Face to Face,
for today is a mere reflection
of Your Glory.
Marana tha
