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

Colin and Co.
