Broken and Empty
© B. Scott McCown January 12, 2017
*****************************
I come before You broken,
Please heal me.
I come before You empty,
Please fill me.
*****************************
I come before You stained,
Please cleanse me.
I come before You a sinner,
Please forgive me.
******************************
I come before You, just as I am
Praying for Your loving, merciful, gracious hand
To lead me to a better place, to a higher land.
*******************************
I come with nothing to offer You
No strength, no talent, no power of my own.
But in weakness and meekness before You I come
Seeking the strength and forgiveness from You and in You alone.
*********************************
I came before You broken and empty,
You healed me and filled my life.
I came before stained with sin,
You cleansed and forgave me by Your blood giving Your life.
******************************
Thank You!
Thank you for reminding me of this. I needed this today.
