Not Me But Thee
by
Troy Kaneer
As I walk so am I, my past choices I can't say why,
My Conscience would ask me what are you thinking,
Yet into My depths I kept on sinking,
I can point to the day where I began my fall,
Where on the Lord I failed to call,
I can't go back to that day and time,
I can't remove any of my crime,
But what have I learned from all my mistakes,
My sin has come as poisonous snakes,
Their bite can kill and certainly cause pain,
They will attack your body till it can't remain,
I have sought to do good on my own,
Till now the way I have been shown,
If we try to be good enough we will all fall short,
So from this plan we must abort,
We cannot be good enough to ever please Him,
It is in His river of forgiveness we must swim,
How to do this I cannot tell you,
Just seek for Him He will not fail you,
You see it is choices we make everyday,
We must seek Him at all times in every way.
