In My Path

As I learn to blog while listening to my heart, I pray what I share touches you and it has touched me to write. We all begin journeys. We start a new one every morning. Look for where your path is and watch for opportunities to lift up a brother or sister.  May you be blessed as I today!

In My Path

 

Those in my path, I am passing

Going about their lives

Oh, Lord why can they not see?

The shroud of this world

Hang’s over their eyes.

Dear God, that used to be me.

 

Please give me the love

That only you can show

The love I do not deserve.

Heavenly Father I want to reach souls

In you, I wish only to serve.

Dear God, please send me.

 

The more you cause me to grow

The deeper my roots become

The souls that I see walking

To you Lord, they must be won.

Dear God, deepen the bloom in me.

 

I must admit I so often stumble

When along my own path I trod

In this, I am to be humble

Keep me close to you, my God.

Remembering that used to be me.

 

 

Before, I was my own guide

Please dear Father there is such a need

No longer from You, I hide.

Dear God, that used to be me.

 

I must needs go forth and go boldly

With all you have given me.

And with loving care and understanding

Show them they can be set free.

 

 

Free from the death of their sinful nature

To grow in the grace of your love

Living by walking with you Lord

Angels will be singing above

Dear God, I remember that me.

 

May all the glory be yours, Lord.

As you lead me to those who are lost

To tell them all about Jesus

Who paid the ultimate cost.
