My Awesome God

by Janet Barrett on June 2, 2009

mountain-waterfallOh my Lord and my King!
How is it that I could be ever present on Your mind?
How is it that You would look at me for who I am and love me still?
Your people are supposed to know that You love them!
Yet does their heart rejoice over the privilege of Your unfailing grace?

Yet my soul sings out for the love You have shown me!
My heart beats faster because of Your awesomeness and power!
I cringe before Your perfection because I am so lacking on my own!
What can I give You Oh my God?  I want with all of my heart to be obedient to Your call!
I cast before you all that I adore!  For nothing can compare to Your loving kindness!

Fill me today with the Glory of Your majesty that all may know that You alone are God!
And how can I be downcast my Lord?  When I am filled with Your abiding love!
I want to be a blessing today!  I want others to see the light of Your salvation alive in me!
Take my life, my heart and my soul and consume every part of it until there is only You!!!

For I know the deep pit from which you pulled me out of and the daily sorrow I lived in.
When you pulled upon your lap Oh my Lord and I rested against your breast that day.
When Your mighty ocean of forgiveness spanned my entire view and we together dropped in my pain.
Down into the depths of Your unending grace to lie on the bottom of the ocean floor.
I remember hearing the heartbeat of Your love and resting in the rhythm of your breath.

I will never be the same for I have entered into Your presence!!!
How can I describe Your greatness for my comprehension is forever exceeded.
And my words fail to adequately proclaim how wonderful and awesome are You my God.
Oh, may you give me a heart like David who loved you so true.
And may my children be blessed and love you too.
May my mind and deeds bring glory to Your name and may every evil root be destroyed.

For I know that You are wonderful, and I love Your counsel.
Never take Your Spirit from me, and never allow me to stray.
For in Your arms is the healing of the nations and in Your love is redemption for all.
Where else can one find healing for the mind, body and soul?
I will rest in Your grace, and proclaim Your love for You alone are worthy and You alone are my God.

Amen
