To Be A Vessel

Jesus
My saviour and my friend
You’re closer than a brother
And more than life to me

I live to give you honour
I live to give you praise
I seek to know you better
With each passing day

For you alone are worthy
Of the highest praise
You alone are holy
For this I give you praise

I lift you up in honour
For all the world to see
My prayer is that your love
Will flow to them through me

I know if they could see your heart
They’d want to serve you too
For no one else could ever
Love them the way you do

There are people down on George Street
Who don’t know where to turn
But silently they’re crying out
Come and rescue me

I hear their cries loud and clear
They’re ringing in my ears
And when I stop to close my eyes
I can almost see their tears

I know that you’re the only one
Who can set them free
But I know that you need vessels
And that’s what I long to be
