MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR FINDING ME
Thank You for finding me from sinfulness’ pit
Against transgressions’ peril by Your salvation-writ
To bring me toward biblical truth’s wit
So that I can stay in Your will, spiritually lit.
Thank You for finding me from worldliness’ entanglement
Against humanism’s trap by Your redemption-settlement
To carry me toward gracious provisions’ contentment
So that I can value Your involvement for my commitment.
Thank You for finding me from selfishness’ limelight
Against stardom’s quest by Your sanctification-might
To pull me toward heavenly kingdom’s height
So that I can seek Your righteousness that lets my testimony to be bright.
Thank You for finding me from pride’s tower
Against haughtiness’ competition by Your calling power
To drive me toward submissive trust’s corner
So that I can surrender to Your plan, molding my virtuous manner.
Thank You for finding me from hardship’s jungle
Against struggles’ rigors by Your character-example
To push me toward fervent prayerfulness’ mettle
So that I can cling to Your strength making my faith to be able.
Thank You for finding me from backsliding’s wilderness
Against coldness’ death by Your revival-earnestness
To keep me toward repentant heart’s blessedness
So that I can turn to Your mercy, magnifying my gladness.
Thank You for finding me from fruitlessness’ captivity
Against barrenness’ misery by Your sufficiency-bounty
To gear me toward diligent labour’s productivity
So that I can glorify Your name, along my joyous sincerity.
