Worthy

I want my life
To make sense
In the light of Your gospel.

Consume me, Lord;
Teach me to follow You!

To give up those things
That don't matter
To Your kingdom.

To leave behind those distractions
That will burn as
Hay and stubble.

To know Your heart,
Your passion!

Raise up my generation,
And start with me!

Lord, make me worthy!
I give you everything:
Heart,
Mind,
Actions,
Choices,
Hopes,
And dreams.

Holy Spirit, fall on me!
Cleanse me.
Light the fire in my heart for
Eternity.

Help me to see
Those things which truly matter
To You!

Make me worthy to call myself a
Christian--
To bear Your precious,
Holy name!

"Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ...standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, and not frightened in anything by your opponents" (Phil 1: 27-28).
