Jesus Please Use Me

Jesus, Please Use Me!

Jesus, please use me according
 to your will.
Your purpose in my life,
 I want fulfilled!

Take my prideful 
and break it as needed.
May your purpose in me 
be done and completed.

There’s a lot of stumbling blocks
 all around me.
There’s many things in life
 that distract me.

I have sin that I often carry
 and hold on to.
Please do with life as your ought to!

I don’t want to go through life 
without you.
I realize each day now, how 
much I need you!

Help me to daily yield myself
 to you and obey.
Help me to listen to the words
 you have to say!

Your will in my life I want to be
 my daily goal.
It’s only through you that my life
 can be whole!

Thank you Jesus, for listening
 to my heart’s plea.
I need to much more of YOU
 and less of ME!
