Are You Needing to Change?

Daily follow and abide
Lift to Him, every thought
As I feed on Your Word
Obey all I am taught.

So do pray, that our hearts
Remain steadfast, unmoved
Walk by faith, not feelings
In Christ, wholly approved.

With other cisterns, we still thirst But not the waters, Jesus gives
Becomes a fountain, within us
Springing up, forever lives.

And God warns by deserting
We become wayward people
As we drink, from broken cisterns
We commit two great evils.

Know faith, is our certainty
Our sure expectation
Based on our certain hope
As we wait, in anticipation.

Yes, our new heavenly home
All so perfect, and pure
Our eternal abode
And forever secure.

Not our knowledge, our ‘leaves’
Our sin, we can’t cover
For God sees our hearts
Any sweet fruit, to discover?

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

Take me deeper, dear Lord
Beyond feelings and thought
Come fill with Your Spirit
To live, as I ought.

And beyond death, life eternal
Before His glory, we’ll be
Assured, forever with Jesus
O how blessed, are we!
