Choosing God

This verse I make my daily cry

All other lords I choose to deny

For my maker and creator deserves all of me

I’ve grieved, been broken, and my cup is empty

Empty of the lies that have filled it for years

The process was difficult it took some real tears

The tears alone were hard enough

Because as they would rise, back down I would stuff

For tears equal weakness, at least that’s what I thought

But “Blessed are those who mourn” is the truth Jesus taught

For comfort is what they will receive 

So to this truth I chose to believe

And slowly but surely the tears began to flow

As I felt Jesus pat my back and say ‘There you go..’

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest”

To experience this kind of love is the best

So I took off my fig leaf and emptied my cup

And I said dear Jesus my life is yours to interrupt

Continue to break me and strip me down

Continue to turn my world all around

For I am sure you have called me, So Here am I

For you alone I will dance, I will sing, I will cry

And thank you dear teammates for joining alongside

From you I no longer want to hide

Not all of me is pretty and I’m going to mess up

But Jesus now has room inside my cup

So what overflows will be from Him

I pray he continues pouring pass the brim

Each day a challenge and decision I must make
