Don’t Harden Your Heart

Don’t harden your heart
Staying stubborn, defiant
With grievances, grudges
Hard-headed, self-reliant.

His primary goal, our salvation
Our atonement, kept His Word
Yet first trained, His disciples
To spread His Gospel, to the world.

As God’s precious own
We always, are blessed
We are never alone
Amidst trials, that test.

And put on the new man
Created according to God
In true righteousness and holiness
In His fullness, now daily trod.

Are we humble and lowly
Or proud, self-serving
Are exalting ourself
Or submissive, subserving?

Are so weary of self
All the efforts you make
Self-reliance, self-ambitions
All fleshly, vain mistakes.

Let my heart be blameless
Regarding Your statutes
That I may not be ashamed
Live a life with sound roots.

You’ve dealt well, with Your servant
LORD, in accord with Your Word
Teach me good judgment
And knowledge, conferred.

Yes, will take us thro’ trials
But with grace, sufficient
In our weakness, His strength
His omnipotence, omniscience.

So, surrender your all
To the Master Carpenter
Ask Jesus, transform you
Break barriers, asunder.
