Jesus, I've failed you
Again
Just like yesterday
I forget that you
Create my Heart
Again
Pure and holy for you
But then I splash mud on it
And rip yours to shreds
But you restore me
Again
Just like yesterday
I have become pure and holy for you
But wouldn't it be fun to jump in the Mud?
Only to find that it's 15 feet deep
You reach for me but I close my eyes
Again
And I sink and pretend I like it to fit in with the
Little fish swimming around my legs
Pulling me down
And down
Deeper and Deeper
And the 15 foot puddle turns into
A thousand foot trench
Again You reach
Again I ignore
The true King of the whole universe
But you grab my wrist and pull me out
Again
Just like yesterday
And I am ashamed to show my mud-caked self before you
Pure and holy beyond compare
You pick me up and I hide my head
You sprinkle your Life down on me
And I am clean
Just so I can jump in the mud again
Just so You will pull me out
Again
Just like yesterday
When will I learn?
Your plan is not mine
When will I see?
Take the mud off of my eyes
Why should You care?
I am only a tiny human myself
Why would you reach?
I am worth nothing without You
You are worth everything without me
I am helpless
You are helping me to see
Where it is
That You want me
I only want to be where you are
But where you are seems so far
And this rather
Tempting
Puddle is right here
Just an inch deep
Or maybe two
thousand
