New Wineskins?

May our leaders, seek God’s wineskins
A fresh vison of Jesus’ call
A holy people, disciple-making
Going forth and reaching all.

Jesus marveled, in wonder
To His disciples, revealing
The centurion’s great faith
For his servant’s healing.

So, give and will be given you
Good measure, pressed down
Shaken together, running over
Our giving surely, turns around.

Is your light shining bright
For the glory of God
Or has your wick dimmed
On the journey you trod?

As a branch in God’s vine
We are called to abide
Not wander away
Lest we’re cast aside.

So, am focused no longer
On my feelings and flaws
But His grace, for each need
Trust Him, to open doors.

Ever faithful and true
His Word cannot fail
Fulfilling each promise
Will perform and prevail.

Am longing, Your Spirit
May take full control
Wholly dwelling and filling
Am yielding, my whole.

So sinful, so selfish
I surrender my all
Holy Spirit, come fill
May You Lord, have all.

Since heaven’s my home
Am here, passing through
So, am anxious for naught
For my God’s ever true.
