On Bended Knee

On Bended Knee

I find it difficult to say
that evil lives within my heart.
The urge, always to get my way,
rampages like a rampart�s chart.

To run the race my God approves
is my desire, but I fall short.
My sin, The Holy One removes;
and misery, He does abort.

The waging wars of dark and light,
of good and bad, of weak and might,
are burning passions in my soul
but God forgives and makes me whole.

The flesh and spirit struggle so,
but God sustains the path I go
while keeping focus just on Him,
my future�s bright. It is not dim.

If I could be content like Paul,
in everything, On God I�d call;
remember Jesus set me free,
then go to Him on bended knee.

[ 1 ] - Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness: thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress; have mercy upon me, and hear my prayer.
[ 2 ] - O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? Selah.
[ 3 ] - But know that the LORD hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the LORD will hear when I call unto him.

( Psalm 4:1-3 )(KJV)

Follow in God's path, He will never lead you wrong.
