Keep My Mind Staid On Thee
Popular with so many,
yet I tend to keep to myself.
Can be a difficult person to get along with,
to those without understanding of the
divine drive that I've been blessed with.
I've been implanted with the desire to set
a course toward's my dreams that are predestined
within me... No time to mess around.
Our time is short down here, I do try to remember
to love.
So different than many of the people I regularly
hang around me...
When I run into other folks who are like me, understand
me; these I cannot help but take delight in.
My world was about to get a make over with more
compassion, I became inclined to write about the beauty
and growing heart I have received from our Lord and King,
who continuously restores, rebuilds my heart, renews my mind...
Because apparently my mind was filled with darkness, sometimes rage
because of how uncomfortable it is to try to fit into my earthly skin ...
all the physical changes it goes through as the days of my life
pass from birth to death.. Keeping my mind to stay on Thee Lord to have
my thoughts turn to You the Life Giving Water.
You my Lord put strange works and ways in me; so to the logical
world Your mysterious works, mysterious ways... me who seems
one of those foolish things... this vessel You use to confound the wise...
