This passing world or God's kingdom? Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

LORD, Draw Me Nearer

LORD send conviction, lest I wander,
Discipline me, if I stray,
Take me deeper, draw me nearer,
To ever hunger, and obey.

When obeying, we lay hold,
We no longer, live old ways,
With now, agape love to give,
Comes from Christ Jesus, every day!

Be His laborers, daily sowing
Share His Good News, to all
Be the fragrance of Christ
Go make disciples, ‘tis our call.

So not yielding, to my flesh;
But trust His Word, be obeying;
Guard my heart, from hardening;
Keep me LORD, from straying.

While Jesus tells us, to seek first;
God’s kingdom, and His righteousness;
And all these things, will be added;
So sadly many, seek unrighteousness.

Memorizing, meditating,
Obey God’s Word, and constant prayer,
Total commitment to the LORD,
Be walking closer… and Jesus share!

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

So daily put on, the new man
In God’s likeness, created
In true righteousness, holiness
Daily victorious, and elated.

We are here for God’s business
His purpose, not our own
Bringing Him glory
Go make disciples, seeds sown.

But then sadly, he succumbed
Asked for earrings, from his plunder
Israel gave him much gold
He made an ephod, an evil blunder.
