NEED

I want to
I don’t
God is king
I’m not

I live as though
I knew my world
Knew something about
What would happen today
Truth is I don’t know
Life is a surprise-good and bad

I need the Lord
As much as I need air
My soul suffers
When I am living on my own

The Lord claims first place
Or no place
My busy life
Betrays my lack of faith in Christ

Stop the world
I will not be distracted
The Lord is looking for me
Jesus loves me

I will look upon the Lord
My soul will be nourished
Today is my day with the Lord
He is in control
I surrender my worries
I need His power-to live my life today
