Lord, thank you for your word this morning
John 5:21 calls me “to keep myself from idols”
How timely after a night in London
At Annabels, the famous nightclub

There are so many subtle idols in my world
That claim my heart that should be reserved
For You alone
Forgive me, Lord

I confess that I often give my heart to things
That you created rather than to You
May your grace rescue me from the myself?
Help me live in your grace

Help me to run from all idols
That challenge your rightful place in my heart
May I seek you more and know you more
Guided by You alone

Without your grace, I am not worthy
To be called your son
Help me reject my earthly pride
I know it is your grace that defines me

I am nothing without your grace
I have nothing without your grace
Just another sinner lost in a dark world
Thank you for rescuing me

Everything I am and everything I have experienced
Everything I possess are gifts on loan from You
I am just a sojourner living in a temporary world
In debt to your rescuing grace

I pray through your grace, my life will glorify Thee
