“Your Will, Not Mine, Lord” is a song I wrote while waiting for the rest of my Sunday School class to be finished with their music practice.
Try to raise my kids to love the Lord
Try to teach my kids to do their chores
To become loving, respectful, powerful, wise, adults.
They argue, I plead.
They whine, I yell.
How can they be what I am not?
Can’t change them.
Can’t even change myself.
I want to do Your will.
In Your Power.
For Your Glory.
Lord.
Help me get myself out of the way.
Your Will
Your Power
Your Glory
Not mine, Lord
Your Will
Your Power
Your Glory
Not mine, Lord
Your Will
Your Power
Your Glory
Forever & ever Amen.
