I Want to Write

I want to write words that inspire praise
To lead the procession of saints in some kinda craze
to get us amped in the glory of His story all of our days
to be lured by the allure of the light of Christ … to Star gaze

But I can’t find the words, and I cant find the voice
I grasp for clarity, for the poignancy of word choice
But I guess its true, no matter what I do, no matter how hard I try
my feet stuck in the sand, when my heart wants to fly

I feel so limited, not eloquent
What a sentiment, im sick of it
so inadequate
so mad at this
cant believe im just so bad at this

But my God’s got me, He drew me near
even in the valley of all my darkest fears
Even in my shame, and even past my past
even when I come undone, even when I’m at my last

When I cant speak a word
or preach a sermon
even in the darkest season
where I’m not learning
Even when I fail, even when I hurt
Even when you done dig up all my dirt

There’s no condemnation
not a charge to be brought
I know in Jesus all the lies are false
And I know I’m caught
that Jesus sought
that criminal I was when it was all my fault

So to write … I’m free to try, free to sigh
Free to die like my master who was crucified
Free to give, free to forgive
Free to be a kid, Free to live.
