How is it Lord that I am so easily drawn
to the lesser of things in this life?
Why is the shiny so enticing
and the glint of fool’s gold such a pull?
I know full well the truth
I know the glory to find
I know in you is all I could want
And yet…

Forgive my wandering
Set my feet this day
To follow your path
Lead me to kindness
Lead me to love
Let me be joyful
Let me be grace
Let me offer to others
Nothing but you
