But Then I Remember
You delight in coming through me
A new day unfolds, and with it, temptation
to shoulder a load as I often do
but then I remember the role you’ve given
not to carry the load, nor force things to happen
my role is to be the temple of the Holy Spirit
to be still, listening deeply—
then show up, cooperate, with all You are doing.
The day and all that is in it, is firmly in your hand
I readily submit, as You reveal my place
to walk in step with you, simply by Your grace
while You don’t need me to come through
You delight in coming through me
lead on—show me the way
every step, Lord—for Your glory.
