Dear Lord,
I talked to you last night as I fell asleep,
and You were my first thought as I woke up.
You make me smile!
Everywhere I go, You are there, stealing a glance.
When I go home, You are there,
When I go to school or work, You are there,
If I run away from You, You are there.
You're always there, waiting with arms wide open.
Waiting for an embrace.
Some days I'm so dirty. Covered head to toe with the filth of a sinful life,
But You are there. With arms wide open.
I find myself staring off in the distance thinking about You.
What did You ever see in me, that sparked such a love?
You're so great and I'm so small,
You're so Holy and I'm so weak,
You're so beautiful and I'm so full of death.
Yet You looked down and You chose me.
You chose to come to earth for me,
You chose to die on a cross for me,
You chose to raise from the dead and then go and prepare a place for me.
To be with me, that is Your heart, and I long to be with You.
I love You because You first loved me!
And now I want to tell the world! Shout it from the mountain tops!
You are my God, You are my King, You are my everything!
All creation sings Your praises.
The waves bow before You,
The trees stretch their branches up to You,
The flowers display their beauty before You.
But as for me...
I may not be as faithful as the waves to bow before You.
I may not be able to reach as high as the trees.
I may not be as beautiful as the flowers.
But with everything that is in me,
From the bottom of my heart,
I give You my life!
With all the thankfulness there is,
With all the talents I possess,
With all the time I have,
with all the passion within me,
And with all the love I have,
I say to You,
I am now and will forever be, Your's
Love Always,
Jason
