A View From the Outside In

Lord I love You
But do I like You
I need You Lord
But do I delight in You?

I seek after You Lord
But do I yearn for relationship?
I need You Father
But do I really want You?

I step back and look
You open my eyes
And for what seems like the first time
I actually see

I see my slothful nature
I see my cowardness
I see my denial
I see my disobedience

Oh Abba how You love me
How You long for me
How you desire relationship
How You sacrificed for me

God You make all things new
You grace is sufficient
Your renewing mercy lefts me up
Gives me wings like eagles

You have set me free
From the bondage of sin
You have set me atop the highest mountain
That I might shine You

For I am Your temple
And in Your temple You dwell
Father You are my God and King
And in You I delight
