Change
Change
All that I am and all that I’ll be
Will differ today till eternity
This world and this life will not see me the same
One moment from now, little does remain
My fear and my doubt, my faithlessness strong
Perseveres from moment to next moment long
But still there is little to no guarantee
Of any ambition. Of any dream
Each time I am moved, by something I’ve learned
The pain that it takes for my soul to be stirred
Does it count for nothing? For what have I gained
If this does not last, if again I’ll be changed
The truth may so impact my viewpoint on life
Perspective, this lesson from God through my strife
A week and this lesson no longer in mind
I will have moved on, no longer entwined
Enraptured no more by that which I have seen
Does God’s truth mean nothing? What is left to glean?
What point is in learning, regeneration?
If heart moved no longer- what then have you done?
Your change, it is good, how You make me new
But how to remember things that You do?
To write them and preach them and use them my best
Your truth is Your purpose, a moment, a zest
Though one day is strong and does change me for good
And change once again each moment as it should
Nothing You do is worth nothing I know
So praise I will give, for each moment You sow
Stir up in me a new song of Your praise
Every moment, each day, though pain is Your braise
Your good is my joy, my impression today!
God teaches me new things by means of breaking down and building up- but the things that I learn will never mean as much as the moment they impact me. But there is value in every move of my heart, I should praise God, the unchanging one, for being the changer of things in my life. It is His presence in me that works even when I am not working with Him. Praise God!
