‘It’s All About You!’

I wrote this song back in April of 2011. It was one of the last songs I wrote until going on a mission trip in October 2011. I was about to do my first speaking outside of my own church. I was concerned that people would see the speech as self promotional That speech seems to be part of what triggered the block and the aching period of feeling somewhat withdrawn from God that I felt for six months or so. I now believe that my ego got in the way, perhaps because there were no instantaneous results from doing the speech. The songs are back and coming quickly these days, as you will see in the near future.

The God who supplies all these words will bless you and keep you today and always! Recognize that one simple fact and life will be wonderful and amazing!

It’s All About You

Time and again I fail to be
The kind of person You want me to be
Yet each and every time that I fall short
You forgive my transgressions and give me one more
Chance to live, as You ask me to
Always free, to find new life in You
Thank You Lord, Please

Help me to live dedicated to You
In a way that ensures that Your love will shine through
Help me to live so that others will see
What You and Your love are doing for me
And want to share that relationship too
Lord, please let them know that it’s all about You

Time and again, I cannot see
The path You’ve laid out that will set me free
I wander and roam around, lost in the dark
Then You shine Your light in the depths of my heart
Now I see, as You want me to
The new me, when I live my life in You
Thank you Lord, Please

Help me to live dedicated to You
In a way that ensures that Your love will shine through
Help me to live so that others will see
What You and Your love are doing for me
And want to share that relationship too
Lord, please let them know that it’s all about You

Time and again, I give up in fear
When I should proceed knowing You’re always near
I stop and I tremble and fall to my knees
You call my name calmly and I walk to thee
Reassured, sheltered in Your arms
Comforted, knowing I’m safe from harm
Thank you Lord, Please

Help me to live dedicated to You
In a way that ensures that Your love will shine through
Help me to live so that others will see
What You and Your love are doing for me
And want to share that relationship too
Lord, please let them know that it’s all about You
