Saved By the Bell
I am saved by the bell
It rings oh it rings
I was asleep
Jostled by the blazing sound
Ahh where am I?
In a dreamy land or a promised land
Seemed I had walked too far
My journey was treacherous
But I kept on
With the sound of Your calling
Kept moving on
Didn't know when it's going to end
Or it will end
But I'll let You quench me
Because only You who knows my thirst
Quench me, Spirit
Douse me with Holy fire
Consume me
Till I am no more
But a speck in Your eyes
Ahh I don't want to be just a speck
I want to be around - just to serve You
Unless You don't want to be served
And that is fine
I'll serve myself
Dinner at 7
T.V. time at 8
Bed time by 9
Is that my schedule?
No
Some old lady's
I don't have a schedule
Because my schedule is on Your time
Haha
Take it well, my Spirit
And don't let me falter
'Cause I can be flat on my face
And scream out Your name
At which time, you know why
But kidding aside
I wouldn't know what to do with my time anyway
Except calling out Your name
Yeah I think I'll do that :)
