How do I submit….that which I have no control over?
How do I submit my body to You when I cannot get it to go in the way I want?
How do I give You what I have no say over?
How do I give You what is full of anger?
Of despair?
Of immoral thoughts?
How do I give to Your service a walking disaster?
I have nothing to offer
No part of mine can be considered righteous
Upright
Where do I begin?
How can You accept this sinful body of mine?
A rag
Is there anything worse than a rag?
Tattered
Worn
Torn
Filthy
Who wants to associate with a rag?
How much more One that cannot behold sin?
Drag me then
Drag me kicking and screaming
Drag me murmuring and fussing
Drag me before Your throne
Take away this free will You gave me
For I have abused it
Drag me before Your altar
Take
Use me
Make me thirst for You
Make me burn till I follow the path you have paved for me
For I fear….more than anything
That if I continue this way
I may loose eternity
