Lord, Only You Can Do It

Lord, Only You Can Do It


Am I applying God’s Word to myself,
Or do I think of another,
Not really hearing as in it I delve,
Applying to a sister or brother?

Yet I find in times of tears and distress,
I’m eager to hear God myself.
His infinite strength to help in this mess
Is what I need ere I’m stuck on the shelf.

Dear God, here is my heart, my life, my will.
Please weave it together Your way.
Help me to read and listen and be still
And do YOUR will ‘til the end of my days.
