Know the Desires of My Heart
Life lessons learned through experience
In an undesired fashion
Learning to give up worldly ways
To obtain a Godly passion
My hearts desire was fulfilled
For only a short amount of time
Only after did I notice not all is good
And worldly gain loses its prime
My soul cries out for comfort
Down my face tears graze
All along I should've searched for the One
By Trusting, Worshiping, and Praise
My heart should be so full of joy
And passion for my Savior
That when a man comes into my life
I know it's God doing me a favor
I pray for strength daily
Strength to know my worth and judge not
For the only way to true happiness
Is to seek what Jesus sought
So I ask for God to motivate me
To teach me patience, understand my thoughts
With time I'll know to appreciate unanswered prayers
Instead of examining the 'it oughts"
