Soul speak

Humbled to understanding I may know why
I have been here before which brought me to you
no pain so great than known defeat
Christ our Lord stood the way only One can stand
Incredulous I stand holding up my palms
Please God bring me within your guidance
I stood too proud and was shown the power
Forgive me Lord Almighty
for I have no excuses and stood unarmed
I put down my Sword unaware
and have been awestruck consumed
The power from above will man the helm
Guide me away from these times I wish not
I will follow
I will follow
My God will I follow
Feel the pain
discover the good
Remembering the pain becomes Known the pain
and humbled yet again
Thank you Lord for calling me yet again
retrieving me from the prey I have been
Please God Almighty... please God Almighty... please God Almighty
For I know my sin
How can it be
ever so sly
theft in front of my eyes
theft in front of my eyes
Leaving me pierced and bleeding with sorrow
Strength comes in the healing wound
Reminders of what brought me near
Thank you Lord Almighty for drawing me deeper as understanding comes clear
Of the realms we tend to forget
Arm me with the belt of Truth and the sword of the Spirit

We are striving to be Christ like suffering wounds along the way. With a firm belief in our Lord - we battle on and pursue the prize. "Forgetting what is behind and straining for what is ahead."  I will follow.
Pick up your sword. If we hold together we will survive.
