Jesus Please Come Into My Life

Jesus, Please Come In To my Life!

Jesus, I ask you to be my "invited guest."
Lately, my life's been "quite a mess."
I ask you to take complete control...
The garbage in my life... simply must go!
There’s been many times, I’ve cried myself to sleep.
I now feel like I'm in a pit! Ever so deep!
Only you can bring peace to
my desperate situation.
I extend to you a heartfelt invitation!

As you renew my mind, my thoughts 
and words spoken…
May my life be tender, yielded and broken!
I will then enjoy life the way
You intended it to be!
For I need much more of you, 
and a lot less of me!
Thank you for the work in my
life you're anxious to do!

I really have begun to appreciate YOU!
Jesus... you're so forgiving,
loving and kind.
You have been there for me every time!
As I eat of your words… my daily bread.
Please mold me and use me
 in the days ahead!
