TO THE VICTORY I LONG TO WIN

We all have our own troubles
problems and situations to bare in this life
the devil creeps in at weak moments
to cause us nothing but grief and strife

Yet our hearts belong to Jesus
so each day we cry out for His help
we do battle together on a daily basis
for His love is always felt

Still my will conflicts with His will
and I try to change His pathway for me
depression,ill health and lack of confidence
are the things the devil sees

Then instead of picking myself up
through fast and earnest prayer
I find what makes me comfortable
robbing my Lord of His true share

I really love you Jesus
this in my heart I know You see
but love is not enough I know
for the kingdom You offer me

I know that I am Your vessel
designed with purpose and plan
that You will mold into a likeness
of your own Holy Hand

So father I stand before you today
Saying"Jesus I am ready to try again"
break this will within me
help me surrender so I may begin

To do thy work,way and will
with abundant love and care
to use the dreams we create at night
so that others may see that in you there is no fear

Humbly I tell you
I have robbed Jesus who I love most
by settling for less than He gives
through His Spirit the Holy Ghost

Now once again today I vow
that my eyes will rest on Him
and I will pray that He will guide me
to the victory I long to win
