I don't know where to start O' God. For I hear you call my name. And I feel your touch, your presence is new to me. Take me deeper. Pieces of the puzzle start coming together. I'm suddenly realizing the love you have for me. Draw me O' God. Take me Deeper. In your waters I am only ankle deep. And your love is more than enough for me. In your waters I am cleansed in your name. No chains hold me down. Take me deeper. But God I am struggling Things don't make sense. The path I thought to be straight has become rugged and everwinding. My lips forsake and my lips proclaim a falsity of your love. I am washing ashore. *No, no my child. For I did not promise a straight path with instructions along the way. I promised I am with you always.* God proclaims you are the lamb, and I am the shepherd. For the seed inside the sower is my spirit. For the Lord your God is not I was... But I am. The cross was a sacrifice, not an article of my image. Not to be plastered on cotton or proclaimed by false prophets But to display a promise. A flag to be flown. So Lord, I return to your waters. Your current pulls me in. Increase my faith, O' God for I have astrayed. For your promised your love for me I shall not want. In your waters I am only ankle deep, and your love is more than enough for me In your waters I am planted firm in the sand, anchored by faith. I will not wash up on dry land. In your presence I am replenished and satisfied. For my cup overflows. Let your current take me in. Even when the waves ripple and roar. I will no longer wash ashore. Take me deeper, Lord! So I'll sing a new song while I'm waiting in the water 'til you return again. And even when the waves hit me I'll return to you again. Cause see I was drowning in sin 'til you pulled me up and gave me life and then you promised us, you will never forsake us. Even though we fail again, and again and again. You are the 1 and I am a 0. but with you I am made a 10. But don't you dare mistake that as a blen. He took me and crushed me and with a broken body he'd mend a new creation in him A beautiful bride to wed. You see on Calvary was the cross was the son of man who bled! And as he bled, He thought of me and you I'll say it again He thought of me and you. He died so me and you can be with him Not to try to be a good person or to try to stop cursing, because if we are trying, it is certain that things will only worsen Honestly! Him dying for us, did we deserve it? But then we go on trying and we go on cursing and we're still not learning that there is no trying When it comes to his loving, we should be crying We should be yearning and glorifying! When you have burden, start relying because when you are praying he is replying when you have mourning, He's also crying! Stop buying, start giving Stop reclining, start standing! Start finding and understanding! Keep seeking 'til it gets overwhelming! And just because, just because you found him does not mean that you're done No matter where you are in your walk He isn't done with you We are not called to be content and comfortable So don't pretend you reached your goal We should be inseparable to the One that is undeniable, uncontrollable, invincible. We should believe in the unbelievable! Get rid of me, myself and I Things of the flesh must die Realize that in order to live, we must die. Just as he was crucified so we re-crucify Each and every second of our lives! Oh on Calvary was the CROSS was The son of man who bled And as he bled he thought of me an you I'll say it again, he thought of me and you. Lord, Take Us Deeper.

'Take Me Deeper'
