Lord, empty me of me,
so, I can be filled with You
drain my soul of my pride
the stubbornness in it too.
Remove my self-importance,
take my smugness away
get rid of the very thought
I can do things my own way.
Lord, empty me of me,
the arrogance and conceit
to my own selfish will . . .
may I give it a back seat.
Take away the former greed,
the need for self-indulgence
to any unrighteousness . . .
give me a zero tolerance.
Lord, empty me of me,
fill me with the Spirit of You
so I may embody . . .
all You would say and do!
~~~~~~~~~~
“But ye are not in the flesh,
but in the Spirit, if so be that
the Spirit of God dwell in you.
Now if any man have not the
Spirit of Christ,
he is none of his.”
