We

We 

are drowning in a raging sea

Caught up in our own inadequacy 

All we think, all we say is 

me, me, me. 

All the while we want to be free

Yet we ignore the way we know how to be 

Disgusted by ourselves yet filled with self love 

Forgetting to fix our eyes on things above 

Instead of the Founder and Perfecter

We look to ourselves, the reflector 

When we stare at our empty reflection

We miss out on the divine recollection 

Turn the mirror of our souls 

To the Son that illuminates our deepest holes

Not to think less of ourselves, but of ourselves less 

Not striving to be noticed, not striving to impress 

Not looking to be blessed but looking to bless

Yes

This is how we overcome our self hate 

The pride that lies to puff up and berate 

The self pity that drives us to isolate 

The self destruction leading to an awful fate 

We 

We were made to glorify the Name 

Father Son and Spirit, one in the same 

He took our sin, He bore our shame 

To heal what is broken, to fix what is lame 

We need not dwell on ourselves at all 

But on His holy name we call 

Before His throne prostrate fall

And worship at His feet 

Amen
