Glory

The understanding of your worth is

knowledge vastly higher than mine.

To see and to know,

to experience and feel,

to realize the full depth

should cause me to kneel.

At the foot of the throne,

all because of the cross

where you made me your own

and all things became loss.

To see the glory

and the renown of your name

the full splendor of your majesty

and your unmatchable fame;

These things in their essence

should consume me to the core,

direct the course of my life

for it is you that I live for.

And yet in my weakness

as I continually fall

your Spirit surrounds me

(as he desires to surround all).

And then in the darkness

where I so often fall apart,

I experience your presence

and the power of the spark.

See what you have done,

in this wicked heart of mine?

You have reveled to me your glory,

and made this heart more like thine.
