Treasures in the heart

I couldn't sleep last night...
Cause' I had you on my mind
Meditating on your might
Amazed by Your mercy
Your grace so sweet
After it all...how is it for me?
You are so holy
But I am just me
Apart from you I lack all good things
You say Your grace is sufficient for me
I believe it more each day
I always need Your grace in a new way
God who am I to say
"It's my way"
When the next breath I breathe
Is a gift from thee?
Pour out my pride till' I'm empty
Till' every song I sing
Every word I speak
Is Your words through me
I'm just a clay jar
With treasures in the heart
Somehow I can be...

Righteous


But apart from You I'm just clay with no potter
You mold me
Shape me
Cleanse me
With Your living water
Bring me through the fire even if it burns
You know better than I so I try to learn
To trust you through it all
And you know what I saw?
You never left me alone
Your sweet mercy is shown
In my life O Lord
You use the small
The ones who fall
And get back up cause' it's you they call
They know you're all they have
When all falls You stand
So fan the flame
You've sparked in my heart
May the flames run wild and free
Until it's you they see...not me
To God be the glory!
May this be my testimony...


"But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
...All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God."
2 Corinthians 4:7-9 & 15
