Our lives are all about You, Jesus
It's not about what we require
It's not about getting You to please us
To give us our every desire
It's all for Your glory and Your fame
No credit should ever go our way
We are to exalt only Your name
You are the potter, we are the clay
It is You who brought us into being
We are the creature, You are the creator
It is us, You are the process of freeing
For we were once the traitor
We betrayed You seeking our own
You are the King of all Creation
We tried to sit upon Your thrown
We destroyed our relation
You are the one reconciling us to You
You destroyed the wall that divided us
We are the ones who were the fool
It is You we should always trust
To You be the glory forever and ever
To You be the praise
To You be the honor forever and ever
To You are hearts we raise

Well thought out..nicely done. A great expression of a deep image of natural truth. And the last few lines gave me a sonnet kinda vibe. All in all, very enjoyable. Well done and thank you for sharing. This is a great poem. I love it all... the poem, the background, the topic....it's all great. keep writing......you have a lot to offer.

How come you have never thought of going to seminary? What do you do in real life?

if i could get high on god/jesus i surely would, sadly though i do not. spill ink and twist me into the crazy shape of love...

I found this difficult to read in places. It was little confusing with the number of we's you's and us's, sometimes there were two per line.line eleven needs some work I think.in line nine you could change bought to brought,maybe i'm not biblical enough to decipher all the meanings that you have written into your work

Praise God. I just posted a spiritual piece myself and changed my author page to add some biblical scripture. This is just lovely. It is the truth and the Praise belongs to Him.
