I Want Jesus

I Want Jesus!

I want Jesus and him alone!
I invite him to be the lord of my home!

I want HIM and his beauty untold!
He’s more precious than silver or gold!

I want HIS presence to daily fill me!
And for his words to daily guide me!

I want HIS Holy Spirit’s instructions!
To overcome life’s many obstructions!

I want HIS will to be completed in me!
His work in my life, others must see!

I’ll ask this same Jesus to touch me!
It’s no secret how much he loves me!

I’ll ask him to touch all I’m doing!
Each day, may I have 
a godly renewing!

I thank and bless his 
wonderful name!
I’ve been reborn and 
completely changed!
