Lord make me a disciple
As I learn Your noble ways,
My life to be surrendered
For Your glory and Your praise.
Remove the worldly traits
Which choke the soul within,
And raise Your holy banner
So new life can now begin.
Establish healthy patterns
As I learn to walk Your way,
And place compassion in my heart
For thirsty souls each day.
Remove excuses from my plate
As I learn to eat Your bread,
And may Your Spirit dwell within
My heart and not my head.
Lord train my feet to move
So I touch the hungry hearts,
Teach my soul to pray
So I’m truly set apart.
As I learn to hear Your voice
More like You I learn to be,
You prepare my home above
So Your face one day I’ll see.
