God, why am I so obsessed with me?
Don't I proclaim that You're the only One I see?
Don't I believe that Your Son, He set me free?
Why do I challenge this path You set for me?
Seems that we're adamant on chasing these dreams
Bent on the images from television screens
Why do I hog all the blessings that You lend?
Why can't I get myself to give more than ten percent?
Job security, my business, my ministry
My own idea of what the church should be
How, did I get so jaded, so lost
To the fact that I should keep my heart instead of Yours, God?
May I go where You go
Hurt where You hurt
See what You see?
Especially in the church will I pray for just enough to get by?
Or will I be still and know that You are the God of my life?
As I'm sitting patiently, waiting for the Lord to speak
Wait a minute, to be honest, I'm too anxious to sit
Be still and know that He is Lord, my biggest struggle
Cause all the time I'm taking matters into my own hands
Like Abraham and Sarah looking to Hagar to get what them was promised
Relying on my own experience and logic
Lord, the passion I had for You has turned to what I do
My eyes are fixed upon the ministry instead of fixed on You
Father, I used to sit in peace soaked in Your presence still and quiet
Listening to Your voice that calmed the mental riots
And now I'm fighting with my strength, walking in Your calling
Lord help me cause my feet will always be two steps from falling
I desire to be in Your secret dwelling places
Take this ambitious drive inside of me and bless me with serenity
That I may be weak in the presence of the Son of Man
Strengthened by the peace that transcends all to understand
Sometimes it's hard to see the bigger picture
It's hard to see that God is working on something within ya
He promised that He had a perfect plan for me
He said I am highly favored and His masterpiece
So why do I sit here and mope
When I should be joyful and filled up with hope?
