That He May Increase

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

So, we likewise must repent
Of rebelling, and sleeping
We should rather, seek God
Not self-serving, but reaping.

And here, Jesus reminds
It’s not what we say
Our words can be empty
It is whether, we obey.

Our motives so matter
To take, or to give
Self-serving, or God’s glory
For what do we live?

And who doesn’t strive
To achieve in our flesh
Instead, learn to wrestle
With God, till we’re blessed.

Yes, keep waiting on God
The LORD only, our choice
Persevere and be faithful
‘Til we hear His voice.

So filled with God’s Spirit
No room left for me
For I died with Christ
Hallelujah, set free.

For this vessel is thirsty
I come open, and empty
O Lord, come and fill
From Your rivers of plenty.

In exchange for your sin
He will give you, His Spirit
Be discontented, no longer
Yield your life, He will fill it.

Deeper, yet deeper
Drawn deeper still more
Am so devoted, desirous
Of Your presence, O Lord.
