Centrer

And all of a sudden everything feels like it's falling apart

I can't even talk to You

Talk about You

Or listen to You

Without being distracted

How did I turn away?

Everything was so right

Going so well

I thought I had it all figured out

Well, at least most of it

You're always here and I know You are

So why am I living as if You don't exist

My life is nothing

But You make me something

You created me

Love me

And all I ever do is neglect You

Bring me back to the road I was cruising on

With You in the drivers side

And me in the passenger side

Take me to where You want me to go

Focus my mind on the things of Your kind

Love, joy, peace, patience, righteousness, kindness

Keep me away from temptation that I may not sin

But I'm cursed so forgive me, Father

I don't deserve You

And You don't need me

I didn't choose You

But You chose me

You bled and died for me

Took upon your shoulders

My filthiness, my sorrow, my pain, my sin

And You we're glorified

God, this is your story

This isn't my life anymore

Take all of me

Body and spirit

Transform me

Make me more like You

Sit enthroned upon my heart

Beat me down until I surrender

Give me strength to fight my ways

And courage to live Your ways

All I need is You
