to be able to take up our cup – v2

Needing to become empty
our sweat too like blood;
Pouring out our whole selves
to be able to take up our cup.

Nothing of our old self
of our own will remaining;
Pouring our will on the ground
to become the Servant.

To be like Christ
in the garden that night;
To turn our lives over
to the perfect will of God.
