Be My One and Only
By Erica

Be my One and Only.
I know I've walked away.
But I'm coming back now.
I'll try my best to stay.

I'm not proud of what I've done.
Or the places that I've been.
I only know I'm broken now;
Devastated in my sin.

Be my lone Sufficiency.
I'll take all You can supply.
I'll trace Your steps and hear Your voice
'Til we see eye to eye.

I could write a million poems,
Say that each one was for You.
But sometimes You know I fake it.
And I know You see right through.
And I'd like to be transparent,
But solid's all I ever knew.
My road has not been narrow.
But my steps turned back to You.

Be my still and quiet night:
Soft repose and Delicate Star.
Your face is printed on my heart.
My name is tattooed on Your palm.

Keep me steadfast and serene.
Let me be Your joy and pride.
I will ever trust in You

Who died for me,
Who shed His blood,
And who kept it real,
Though crucified.
