Jesus I Want To Know You More

Jesus, I Want to Know You MORE!

Jesus, may I have an increasing faith to know you.
May the words I speak be a way
 to show you!

May the way I live be in obedience to your will.
I pray that your mission
 for me will be fulfilled!

May I be humble and seek to do your pleasure.
Your words of life are what I need to treasure!

May I tell others of what you’ve done for me!
And share with them how
 much you love me!

May I take the time to be with you each day.
And speak to you from my heart in what I say!

A life of Jesus filled living is what’s needed.
It’s only in serving you that I’ll be completed!

Thank you for listening to my plea.
And thanks for everything
 you done for me!

You’re wonderful and glorious! 
 How I need you!
I’m giving you my whole life
 because I love you!

Knowing and loving you
 is a blessing I received.
It all began that moment 
I chose to BELIEVE!
