be completely humble -
pomp and circumstance are not eternal self-righteousness will not set you free be completely humble - the Spirit's fruit are the sweetest of bittersweet the Spirit's discipline is the gentlest rebuke be completely humble - the world will say build walls, break down, and lose your self in your evolving reality the world claims self-creation, craves self-destruction, and leaves you all alone be completely humble - Jesus is the incarnation of reconciliation, revitalization, and true, substantial existence Jesus is the presently active creator, the war-zone medic, who meets you where you are be completely humble - be completely hopeful - be completely humble - God is working, restoring, calling all souls to hear His song and join in the melody I look to you in the thick of things
smothered in weeds, with barbs persistently latched to my skin. My vision smeared by grit and webs, I look to you in the thick of things and you, my thorn-crowned king, see through to me. You, my thorn-crowned king, weep true with me. And with surgeon's care, begin to sever the weeds. You attend to every scratch and wound with gentleness and discernment. You pull the poison from my veins and wash my wounds with your blood. You give your blood for me with no condition. Oh thorn-crowned king, you offer absolution and you oh so carefully bind every wound then give them air to breathe and you walk with me as I test out my new blood. You clear my eyes and delight in my delight in seeing you. I am free now from the weeds. Free only because of you, my thorn-crowned king, who met me in the thick of things dear sovereign gardener. |
