I am not yet the image You formed me to be Veiled in shadows, fractured light inside of me Longing for the healing only heaven breathes Forgiveness like a river, deliverance like the sea I’ve clutched the hidden pressures, carried storms within These chains of circumstance that bend my will again Yet every wave that breaks was meant to bring me low To the place where dying flesh can finally let You grow I held what You would shatter, kept it for my name Comfort’s hollow altar, feeding dying flame Now it stands between us — between Your heart and mine Obstructing holy purpose, Your recreating design I thought my strength sufficient, yet I know the truth Beneath the mask I’m barren, a prisoner of my youth The old nature whispers, pulling toward the dust We were born for glory — only You can lift us up And here, within the tempest You alone command You walk upon the waters, reaching out Your hand “Beloved, will you trust Me in the deep?” So I put my trust in You Trust that heals, trust that renews Trust that shares Your Kingdom’s endless view I lay my hope in You I choose the narrow road, I fully follow You Into the greater purpose, I surrender all to You In the secret place where sin and sorrow meet Your light unearths the idols buried at my feet The greater story rises from these broken bones Eternal weight of glory in the seeds You’ve sown No longer bound by echoes of what used to be I yield the dying embers for Your eternity Recreate me wholly, breath by holy breath From glory into glory, life beyond this death I’ve wandered long in circles of my own design… Now I step out on the waves where fear dissolves in time… The storm bows low before the whisper of Your voice… I am Yours, forever Yours, in You I rejoice… I put my trust in You Trust that mends the deepest wound Trust that calls the dead to life anew I fix my hope on You I leave it all behind and fully follow You Into the greater purpose, only found in You Greater purpose… woven in Your scars… I put my trust… my all… in You…
