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.
