Lay All on the Altar

Offer all, at His altar
Our bodies, He purchased
As living sacrifices, holy
Well pleasing… our service.

Thus guard your heart
Take steps to ensure
‘Tis not overtaken
By those things, impure.

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

Know hurts to our heart
Must be forgiven
Our pain, and revenge
We’re in our own ‘prison’.

God is pleased by our faith
As we trust, and obey
So, fear not, stay faithful
Follow His will and way.

To bring hope, facing trials
Temptations and testing
God’s Spirit in us
Protecting, perfecting.

May our wants and our will
Be in line, with the Lord
Lest our hearts become hard
And resentments, are stored.

Have you grasped, how wide
Just how deep and long
And so high, is God’s love
Now in Christ, we belong.

But sadly, so often
We too, failed to obey
For instead of us fishing
We’re distracted, and stray.

Get rid of the junk
In your mind and heart
Wrong thoughts and motives
That mar, tear apart.
