Let me
Let my lips speak of Your glory
Not just in thanks but in honor of Your praiseworthy name;
Not just when I receive blessing, but even when I am tried.
Let my voice sing of Your might
Not for my own glory, but for and in worship;
Not only when I feel joy, but despite of sorrow.
Let my hands impart Your kindness
Not to gain merit, but as thanksgiving for Your generous blessings;
Not just when I am able to, or because I got something to give,
but even if it requires a little sacrifice.
Let my thoughts ponder on Your plan
Not so I am in control, but so I can follow;
Not for me to tailor it to my own, but so I can change my plans to fit Yours.
Let my heart share Your grace
Not so I can reap other’s forgiveness, but to impart love;
Not so I assure myself of salvation, but because I am saved.
