That He May Increase

May the LORD increase
In my life, day by day
And may I decrease
I earnestly pray.

‘In Me, you have peace’
Spoke Jesus, God’s Son
‘In the world, tribulation
Be courageous… I’ve overcome’.

When confronted by suffering
With reasons unclear
Will we choose to grow better
Or grow bitter, with fears.

So instead of your resentments
Repent, come seek His light
Washed clean, of all your sin
Be now forgiven, in Christ.

Make a joyful shout
To the LORD, all the lands!
Serve the LORD, with gladness
Sing before Him, clap hands.

So, we lift every hurt
Release all, to Him
Now laid upon Christ
Walk in grace, not sin.

As a soul, with a body
Ignore not your spirit
Jesus offers new life
Will you ask Him, come fill it?

In scripture and song
In prayer, listen too
Expect to meet God
He is waiting for you.

Seek but the Lord
Not for what He can do
But simply enjoy Him
Alone, He and you.

So, ponder sin’s price
Such suffering, separation
Jesus’ death on a cross
For His own creation.
