Worship Wednesday: Poetry & Song

[Beautiful. inspiring. encouraging. honest. truth. Written by my best friend. Read and enjoy.]

There was a day when worry would bring fears to me at night.

I would toss and turn and wonder

“Is what I’m doing right?”

Faced with the decisions and details of the day,

I would wait

I would wonder

I would hold my breath and pray…

But no longer will I worry that somehow I’ll let Him down

That I’ll choose the wrong direction

That I’ll somehow get me lost

That I’m failing

That I’m falling

That I can’t afford the cost

I’ve been freed from that prison

And I will not step back in

The details do not matter

As long as I’m with Him

When the question comes around again

As I know it’s bound to do,

“Where, Lord, should I go?”

And “What, Lord, shall I do?”

I hope my heart remembers

I hope my mind will know

I SERVE THE LORD WITH EVERY STEP

That is where I go.

I will never live for nothing

I will never be alone

The doors I close, I won’t regret

The ones I choose will be my own

When I step in a direction

I will find a victory

Every corner that I turn, an adventure there for me

My life will not be nothing

Won’t be small

Won’t be trite

I will live for something

Lord of GLORY; Lord of might!

My life is not my own now

It is yours

You breathe in me

I’ll let Jesus be ambitious

He will find the victory!!

Left alone, I might have squandered

Might mismanage or delay

But I am not in charge now

The Lord now has the say

He will not be conquered

He will not be made a fool

The Lord my God is Yahweh!!

My life is just the tool.
