In You (v. 5)

I think this is the closest I've ever got to writing version of "In You" that is suitable for ocngregational singing. But it's too long, just the the hymns of old, but I cannot be compared to those writers. What I've got is limited by my ability or the lack of it. Nonetheless, I tried my best and thus it became my latest lyrical offering.

Verse 1
O Lord pls guard our heart
From all our selfish ways
That seeks to rise above
The knowledge of Your ways

Chorus 1
We all deserve to die
As our world and yours collide
Will You open up our eyes?
To see you in our sights

Verse 2
O Lord we place our trust
In You with all our hearts
To walk and to obey
Your word through all our days

Chorus 2
We may fall along the way
Remind us what you said
The righteous shall live by faith
Approved in everyway

Chorus 3
So we offer a sacrifice
To you we give our lives
You are most glorified
When we're most satisfied in You...

Ending
In You I find my peace
In You I find my place to be
It doesn't matter what I've been
You're always there to share my pain
I found love in You
I found it hard to not believe
What you said in Your words
I believe that it's strange but it's true

With this one I am actually very satisfied. It must stop somewhere unless one day I found an inspiration to better it.

So Vern is right. I better not make empty promises. Anyway "Broken Hearts Make Empty Promises".

Oh, that's a Gloria instrumental piece. hehehe...
