I Exist For Him--Bottom Line

I am being blown away by the basics of the very faith I claim to be my own. Revelation is stacking itself up in my heart, and my life cannot be the same. The way I think and live cannot be the same. A daughter(son) of God is led by the spirit of God. Whoa. Wait, now, that's all I have to do? Listen, be open, obey God, follow him in everything? Yes, that is what I have to do. I have to. Because now if I don't, I'm denying my own true desires, which are born of the spirit of God. I have been trying, without acknowledging it, to fill some kind of void I thought I had by filling my time with things that lacked true value, with buying "good" things just to make myself feel better. No! I don't need any of that! He is all I need! Really. If I don't burn for him alone, if I don't give my whole life to his purposes, I have nothing. I don't want nothing. Not anymore. I want Him! And that means doing whatever He tells me to do; saying, speaking, acting on His every word. And staying put if He has not given the go-ahead. I exist for Him.

I Need You

I give into you
Do what you want to do
I let go of fear
Won’t you take me and draw me near?

I give in
I let go
I don’t ever want you to go
Your words are life
Your words are true
And everything I do
Is nothing
Without you

My heart is yours
That’s all you want
It doesn’t matter what I thought
Before

You are right
I am wrong
I’m ending this fight tonight
And I’ll offer more than a song

Break me down
Hear me cry out
Overtake
Awaken inside of me

Desperation
Is my confession
I don’t ever
Want it to be different
I need you more than
Anything
Whether I believe
It or not

So keep me here
In this place
So I can see you face to face
I would die
If I did not realize
I need you
Father
I need you

All in All

Unimaginable wonder
Unthinkable power
God of love
Coming closer
Responding to seekers
Your strength does not withhold
Your tender touch
Your breath brings life
But destroys the unjust
When we suffer
You are there
Holding our hands
Remembering the pain
When we rejoice
You dance with us
Lead us in your step
We don't want to fall.
Unfathomable depth
Merciful Presence
Powerful Ruler
We lay down
To give you the place
You are due
Does it look
Like home to you?

To flow
In your life!
Rhythm of my soul
Blow and make me whole.
Wholly yours
Holy, yours,

Every darkness in my face.

Fly and Burn

Father, we reach out to touch your Light, for your Light never goes out. It ignites our embers and makes our spirits soar! We won’t be afraid to jump, to leave all behind to pursue your dream. Your dream is to break every chain that binds the hearts that long to beat with purpose, to make every child a burning flame in your Kingdom of Light. Burn down the walls that keep us from flying, the ceilings that keep us from touching you. Release those that you have called to inspire others. Call them from their corners and breathe new breath into their lungs so they come alive and burn. So they burn with a common goal to awaken truth and identity even when everyone around them settles for the soft breezes of amusement. But not for long, for the burning children are coming, throwing off restraints, advancing into radiance; and their fire is contagious!

Heart Fire

My heart cries for freedom

My spirit longs to soar

Your love to pour through my fingers

Your touch to ignite souls

You call me to be broken

Broken for the sons

For the daughters

To be made whole

Love only flows

Through the cracks

That break us open

And expose our pain

My heart cries for liberty

When I see

A brother or sister

And their destiny

Make me one with you

Make me free to express

The love you put inside

The fire in my chest

I don’t have much

But lack is my greatest gain

For when there’s less of me

More of you is free to be

I may not understand

Your heart’s cry

But I know the One who does

So take my hand, and we’ll fly!

My Love

I don’t want to move

When I’m captured here with you

You show me love is true

And I can be with you

Anytime

Anywhere

My heart reaches out

And you are there

I don’t want to move

When you hold me close

Because I can hear your breath

You’re more real than life or death

I wish I had another word than love

To tell you what your touch has meant

You go deeper than I ever expect

You know what I need more than I ever will

I want to know your will

Because I love your thoughts

And I don’t want to move

Unless I feel your heart

Your rhythm is my guide

When we’re one, I can fly

No hindrance, no doubt

Can keep me from these open doors

I am yours

Don’t ever let my mouth confess

Anything other than this

I am yours

You make me beautiful

And worth more than I could ever be

Without you

I don’t want to move

As I’m here with you

But I will if you tell me to

Because all I want is to live for you

You are my love!
