Rearrange

I've searched my heart
From many angles,
My analysis
Just strangles.
Not one view
Has helped me see
What Your eyes know
Already...
The depths of me.
Naked. Bare...
Of every secret thing,
Aware...
And yet,
Your stare
Does not undo me...
Instead,
You woo me
To desires deep,
To abandon all.
Unashamed,
To knees I fall!
I let Your gaze
Transform. Amaze!
Remove the haze.
Reveal Your ways.
Rearrange
My heart,
My days.
Enter in
To every room
With wind,
And broom.
Sweep away
The cluttered space.
Fill anew
The barren place
With You...
Rearrange
My brokenness.
From ashes raise
Garments of praise!
From mourning,
A spirit rejoicing!
Rearrange
From heaviness,
A heart furnished
With thankfulness!
Rearrange
The depths of me...
Cleanse every prideful
Snare You see.
In every dark
And hidden place
Shine Your face!
Pour Your grace!
Rearrange
My thinking room.
Make my thoughts, Yours,
Your mind, my home.
My every thought
A captive make,
To obey,
For Jesus' sake!
Rearrange
My heart's affections.
Cast away
These vain attentions
Stealing all the strength in me.
Loose me from their tyranny!
Rearrange
My yielded heart.
Resurrect
In every part
All Your life,
Alive in me!
Jesus, come
And set me free!

Rest

Unsettled soul, be still
Still waters can reveal
A greener place to rest
The pulsing of my chest

Your strivings won't create
A quiet place to wait
My Kingdom comes by grace
To those who seek my face

It's costly to ignore
Your soul's insistent war
Though offerings are sweet
Right here at my feet

My knockings won't relent
On you my life is spent
Prepared, an unveiled way
To sup with me today

Though enemies surround
My table, rich, is found
Prepared for you this day
A banquet in the fray

In every heart laid low
My quiet rest will know
Where weary warriors heal
My strategies reveal

Not in your might, my love,
Can these great mountains move
But by my Spirit shall
Every giant fall!

Come away, my bride
Let your heart imbibe
The richness of my heart
Drink deep of every part

Remain in me, my lover,
Abide with me forever
It's here upon my breast
That you will find your rest!
