I want Shalom peace for my soul
Joy for the moments when I’m feeling like a drone
Strength every morning when I’m sipping on a Joe
Serenity to follow The Way even when it’s cold
and seems to be growing a cove around me anxiety is pounding
cause I’ve hidden these cobras for too long it’s astounding
They’re biting me, slowly numbing out the voice of reason
But was it really me who let these snakes leave a lesion
In the light, you’ll see the plight of it’s shame
My guilt refuses to look at it face to face
that mirror, tell me what you see, you coward
Man up to your problems cause you’re losing power
to stand eye to eye with your skeletons and declare
you no longer hold the detonator to the snare
Hallelujah Once again, dust the mire off your chest
Get up, put your robe on, then enter in His rest Yes
You are my life
for all that I have is in Your hands
You breathed in me life out of dust and sand
and here I stand astounded by this love
What do I have to fear
For I am an heir to Your glorious fame
so let everything that I am proclaim
no other name, King Jesus, precious Lord
I live for you
You are my life
for all that I have is in Your hands
You breathed in me life out of dust and sand
and here I stand astounded by this love
It says it there in Phillipians 16
That He began a good work and He will finish it
But many times I wonder what I’m really doing
Whether it is success or Jesus I’m pursuing
‘Cause I feel pride like a hungry mad dog
Ready to pounce on any praise for my songs
But Lord, wasn’t it you who wrote my melody
You wrote the symphony of life, even the end of me
So even when I’m doubting who You are and what I see
I’ll look into Your Word and trust your perfect sovereignty
For many times I know my fickle heart will run astray
But still in You I’ll trust and I’ll pray
You are my life
for all that I have is in Your hands
You breathed in me life out of dust and sand
and here I stand astounded by this love
Life’s a crazy cycle, always switching gears
While the road aheads a mystery, foreign in its tiers
Fears of Fatherhood, could never be so clear
Having no control over what happens to my dear
All I can do is pray, raise her up, Ephesians 6
My act of worship as a father, lead discipleship
My act of worship as a husband, take initiative Eph 523
Lead my home with a sacrificial love relationship Eph 525 27
Miss the ministry and leadership serving the local church
But if I’m not leading my home, can’t be trusted with a herd 1 Tim 31 5
Many times we set to serve in extravagant ways
Is it why discipleship is missing in the home today
Don’t wanna be the man neglecting his family
Christian first, husband, father, then it’s the ministry
Praying for healthy homes, godly marriages and parents
To help build up the church where this need is so apparent
