Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

A Willing Offering

All my days
I want to praise You, I want to glorify You
I want to bless You, I want to honor You, my God
In countless ways
In hymns of worship, in psalms, in sweet melodies
In rhapsodies, in harmonies, in songs of awe

My life in joyful homage to You
A willing offering in spirit and truth
And though I fail, You still love me anyway
I’m not the same, not who I used to be
Because the Holy Spirit dwells inside of me
And He renews me and empowers me again

Prayers for strength
To be a witness, to be a messenger of,
To be a vessel, to be a channel for Your love
And by Your grace
I will be able, I will be bold enough too
I will be mindful, I will be willing to, O God

My life in joyful service to You
For all You’ve done for me it’s the least I can do
But I still fail, Yet You love me anyway
I’m not the same, not who I used to be
Because the Holy Spirit dwells inside of me
And He fills me and enables me again

I’m not the same, not who I used to be
Because the Holy Spirit dwells inside of me
And He convicts me and washes me again

My life in humble deference to You
What the Creator says this creation will do
No questions asked…You are God
I’m not the same, not who I used to be
 Because the Holy Spirit dwells inside of me
And He transforms me and quickens me again

You still love me though I fail
