Lord,
not a day passes, not a night goes by
but that you call me,
that you call me by name,
that you call me to follow you...
So many things hold me back, Lord:
my pride and possessions,
my faults and fears
and the people and things I long for
and lean on as if in them
I'd find the peace of mind and heart
I long for above all...
Help me find a quiet time and place
where I might hear you call my name
and in your calling hear a promise
sweeter, deeper, finer
than anyone or anything might offer...
Help me let go and leave behind
whatever keeps me from your love, Lord,
that I might rise and follow you
and in you find
all the peace my heart can hold...
Amen.
