MARCH 9, 2020

Where do I look for peace, hope and joy?
Everlasting contentment?
Is it in marriage, a new home, prosperity?
Success and fame?
My heart rests only when it finds rest in God alone

Earth will never be my Savior
My treasure is in the heavens
Why do I look to your creations?
When only you, the Creator can give me peace
Your grace is all I need

Spiritual gain should dominate my material lists
My selfishness hinders the spread of your gospel
Lord, tear out this poison 
Weed it from my heart
When you come, the unclean must die

Lord, you are lovely, your thoughts are precious
Your word causes my heart to burn
Your heart is love, your arm power
You are gold without alloy, light without darkness
You are perfect, help me imitate your life
