Just to Grow in Life

Once a sinner, now I’m saved;
Still, I lack in many ways.
Lord, it feels like nothing has changed.
Patient, yet I cannot wait;
Loving, yet not void of hate;
Lord, I don’t want to stay the same.
Thought I had to come up with my own solutions,
But You’re showing me the way to take.

Eating Your word when I wake,
Nothing should get in the way;
Calling ceaselessly on Your name.
Meeting You with all the saints,
Feasting on Your boundless grace,
Praising as I call it a day.
I’ve let go of all religious regulations;
Found a new, enjoying way to take.
