For things not done

2781

Forgive me Lord,  for the things I don't do 

 

I am a coward at best, but my trust is in you 

 

You know my frame, that I am but dust 

 

So in you, I put my trust 

 

To fill the gaps, from where I lay 

 

To praise you, for another day 

 

Your will Lord, is what I seek 

 

So from my heart, your words can speak 

 

I glimpsed your glory, your truth astounded me 

 

You slew my demons, your love surrounded me 

 

Gave me a new, and living way 

 

My faces, my shame, you washed them away 

 

Like every other generation, we root, bud, and flower 

Until the time

Each one at his hour

 

I can't fight it Lord, I can trust in your power 

 

For thing's yet done, your will, will I do

 

That all my trust, can be in you 

 

While you are here, life will abound 

 

And in that life, let your glory surround

 

To do those things, your will be done 

 

To live by truth, as your son.
