Praise you in the storm

Similar to my last post but this one was a joint piece. I wrote this with my fiance' and thought it was all very useful. We were on our way to one of her family members funerals in T.O. and on the way we put on headphones and this is the first things that came to our minds. I will separate each one with a line and the heading as to who wrote each specific one.

You taught me to bother
to put aside my pride
to hold to your word.

This is all I am
I come before you broken
you became a self fulfilling sacrifice
paid in blood.

I will walk in truth
in awe of your marvelous power
Make me/mold me/form me/use me.

Let me see you lord
let me fly on wings of eagles
soaring in your watchfulness
like a child...protect me/watch me, and care for me.

I look to the clouds and see your hand at work
A real life Mona Lisa painted new everyday.

Wind in my hair and my sorrows my southern shadow.
knock on every door and be poured out into all hearts.
Lord become more, become my heart and pump my body and my life with spirit filled blood.

Lord, clear my head. Get rid of unnecessary thoughts that don't relate to you.
There's more to life than what is around us.
One that is much bigger than our troubles, our tomorrows, and our doubts.
The sin in this world is so thick like glue, and so many times it feels like I am drowning in it.
But you always remind to just hold your hand and you will lead me through.

You are such an great and merciful God and so many times I'm just amazed that you haven't hit all of us with lightning. I sure as heck would have if I were you.

You're coming back incredibly soon. I'm anxious, excited, fearful of the unknown...yet I know you are still in control. I have to hold onto that truth everyday.
