The Lord and I

I give you my heart

When I’m mad take it back

I can’t keep living like this

I just can’t keep doing that

•

To you or to myself

Keep pulling back and forth

Deciding when not to follow you

When I think that I’m forced

•

To do something I don’t like

Go somewhere that I detest 

This time I’m letting you drive

This time I’m gonna rest 

•

From my toiling and labor 

Keep my attitude in check 

I’m determined to trust you now 

And not attempt to make threats

•

To leave when I’m frustrated 

Mentally pack up my bags

Throw tantrums when I’m angry

Turn away from you when I’m sad

•

About a task that you’ve given me 

I’ll do it with a good attitude 

Cause if I’ve treated you this way

Will my husband receive this too

•

No, I’ll serve you with gladness

Submit, and do it with a smile

I’ll practice on you Father 

Until my husband arrives
