I Will Go

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?

Then said I, Here am I; send me. Isa 6:8

I took another step as I communed with Him who loved me.

I glanced at my feet as my mind clearly reminded me of what I fairly understood.

These feet are not mine anymore. My hands are not my property. My life is not my own. 

Years backward, I never would have thought I would understand this commitment. But He called.

Give me the strength to commit my life to you wholly.

I will go where His glory is unknown

And the song gives it all.

Give me ears to hear your Spirit

Give me feet to follow through

Give me  hands to touch the hurting

And the faith to follow you

Give me grace to be a servant 

Give me mercy for the lost

Give me passion for your glory 

Give me passion for the cross

I’ll let go of my ambition

Cut the roots that run too deep

I will learn to give away

What I cannot really keep

I will go where there are no easy roads

Leave the comforts that I know

I will go and let this journey be my home

I will go, Lord where your glory is unknown 

I will live for you alone

I will go because my life is not my own

I will go. 

Even so, Father, Here I am. Send Me.
