Stuck In A Moment

I wrote this on September 10, 2008. I found it today. I don't know what I was going through, but I sure am glad God lifted me out of pit I was in!

Im stuck in a moment
I cant find a way out
I like it, I love it
I dont want out

Im stuck in a moment
Was straight on the path
Of Your narrow righteousness
Now the wayside finds my glory

Im stuck in a moment
So deep, so covered
This sin I am in
 Covers me with slimy film

Im stuck in  a moment
Overcome with Your love
Oh Prince of the Air how deceitful you are
"Oh God!" Why what feels so rich, so good, is so wrong?

I humbly come before You
In all my filth, in the chaos of this moment
I cry our to You
For in You we have life

I sat You aside to live
For what I thought was life
But what is life? What is satisfaction?
I thought it was this, this moment

It consumed me
Through my heart, mind, flesh
This is who I really am
A dirty scoundrel who has rejected You

Oh Father, let Your fire fall down!
Let it consume me!
May my sin, rejection and iniquity be burned up
And my Your love pick me up

Yes Lord, I take Your hand
I trust You
You lift me up
And deliver me from this moment.
