My Desire

Jesus I need inspiration
To share with others my salvation
You daily fill me with Your love
To overflowing from above

To all I meet and greet each day
Help me Lord to give away
The love You shower richly on me
That others You in me might see

If only I could love each one
One tenth as much as You have done
I feel Your love more every day
As I feebly stumble on the way

Yes, Jesus without Your strong Hand
Holding mine, I could not stand
Oh, I’m so glad, You won’t let go
Even when I falter so

I know You have a purpose for me
Although it’s something I can’t see.
Help me to make Your will mine
And live one day at a time

Now help me Jesus, give away
Some of the love I get each day
From You freely and abundantly
I want to give that they would see.
