Stop Begging God
STOP BEGGING GOD TO BE GOD, HE IS, BE HIS
And while I was about saying my usual prayer
I heard an inner voice telling me something unusual
Normally I would sing some songs of praises
And then thank Him for His Mercies
I always feel I just had to tell Him some things
Every of my actions and my doings
Then tell Him to protect me as I go out
Saying these prayers I can't do without
And just as I am without taking no thought
My lips prepared to mutter a whole lot
Then He said, please wait a minute
Do you think I say and don't mean it?
You call me Father, and so will I
For I am not a man that should lie
I know my promises and I keep them
You know my statues, just walk in them
Then I realized I can't praise Him enough
And sometimes I have to stop asking him some stuff
What about praying for the sick and the bereaved
Or interceding and the reaching the unsaved
Again it resounds in my ear
And why I have no reason to fear
He watches over me like ever
He is, and always will be a Father
Stop begging God to be God
He knows He need to protect His own
Only live to always trust Him alone
In your life, Stop begging God to be God!
He is, Be His.
