my cracks are evident – v4

I am a broken vessel,
my body is damaged,
my spirit is weighed down,
by many tears, by many years;
Only by Jesus, by His grace,
am I able to hold water.
 
I am made worthy,
though my scars are visible
I have cracks in my vessel,
water would be leaking,
but for Jesus filling the cracks;
My sins are forgiven.
 
The scars still remain,
my past is still written,
my clay is cracked,
where I have sinned,
where I have disobeyed God;
But I am redeemed...

offering fish – v2

Offering fish, bread
the fruit of your harvest;
A piece of the bounty
you enjoy given to them.
Sharing richly, even
with your enemies.

We must share love freely
we must let God be the judge;
Do not avenge evil
that is not your place.
Share love, richly
to all those in need.

Bless Them – v2

Bless them, forgive them
the bullies, your enemies
those who persecute you
Bless them, show mercy to
the others, who challenge
who curse your name
Bless them, the strangers
who hurt you, who accuse
who wish you harm
Bless them, completely,
all people, everyone
here on the earth.

threads of sin – v6

threads of sin,
strands of evil,
of my past, my life,
still woven in the fabric
hard to cut out, to excise,
to remove completely

like the tares from the wheat
interwoven, fused
melted, joined
part of my body
my struggle day to day
to be more faithful

threads of sin
strands of evil
part of my body
grafted in my flesh
hard to remove
to remove completely

strands of evil – v3

threads of my past
strands of evil
in the blood, in the flesh,
smeared on my clay
inside of me, scar tissue;
still part of my body
though I have been washed
cleaned of my sin
once and for all

threads of my past
strands of evil
in the blood, in the flesh,
living within me
struggling as the rest;
life in the body
in the Spirit within
Christ save me
I want to be healed

now I am found – v4

still broken in my flesh
in my journey, this walk;
but I was dead because of sin
lost because of my rebellion
walking away from God;
now I am found
in the arms of Jesus
yet I still struggle in my flesh

saved by His sacrifice
His love that redeems us;
I have life in my Savior
in the gift of grace;
love enough to save me
though I am still broken
the demons still crying
still struggling in my flesh

I was dead – v2

in the pit of my sin
my rebellion complete;
I was dead, lost in the world,
my excess extreme

You found me there
in the pit, my despair;
You raised me up
tears on my face

You gave me a gift
of the Son, now with me
I am a sheep, a follower,
giving my life over

Yet I hold the reins
wanting to be with You
but fighting the yoke;
I am I alive, now,
walking this path

honor God with your life – v2

our response to salvation
to the gift of God, His grace;
sending His Son, a sacrifice,
healing the sins of man

honor God with your life
with your walk daily;
cleave to the Savior
yoked to His path

we must sing our Master’s praises
choosing to be slaves to the King;
honor God daily
for in Him do we live

a son of the devil
or a son of God

no other path,

No other way
