.Surrendering to His will.

I come into this place
Burning to receive your peace
I come with my own chains
From wars I've fought for my own selfish gain
You're my God and my Father
I've accepted your Son
But my soul feels so empty now
What have I become?

Lord, come with your fire,
Burn my desires; refine me
Lord, my will has deceived me
Please come and free me
Refine me

My heart can't see
When I only look at me
My soul can't hear
When I only think of my own fears
They are gone in a moment
You're forever the same
Why did I look away from You
How can I speak Your name?

Lord, come with Your fire,
burn my desires; refine me
Lord, my will has deceived me
Please come and free me
Come rescue this child
For I long to be reconciled to You

It's all I can do
To give my heart and soul to You
And pray, and pray, oh I will pray

Lord, come with Your fire,
burn my desires; refine me
Lord, my will has deceived me
Please come and free me
Come rescue this child
For I long to be reconciled to You

Refine me, refine me
Refine me, refine me

Its crazy how our own selfish desires decieve us and only bring us away from the Lord. Im in a place where I am re-evaluating my heart before the Lord. I desire to be burned clean and be filled with a refreshing from Him. That my desires would be lined up with His and would bring glory to His name. Learning to take risks and allow the Lord to lead me through unknown waters. Knowing that His plans for my life are for good. I find that fear cripples me at times and I boast in contentment in order not to leave my comfort zone. But this year is a year of changes and challenges. I am eager to retrain my ways and live for adventure. To be empty and allow the hand of God to guide me through this life rather than my own.

I shall let go Lord and allow You to be in control =)
for I am FREE in You
