My Two Cents

Why do I feel the need to stick my fingers in everything
I say I trust You and yet I keep sticking my two cents in
Who am I to say what’s right for me and my life
I can only see what’s in front of me and nothing else
But God You know all things and are everywhere
Who else can I trust when You’re the only One
The only One who wants to give me a hope and a future
The only One who chose to die in my place
To give me a second chance when I’m far from deserving
And rescue me from sin and the death that it brought
Forgive me Dad for my nearsighted vision
When I can only see what’s in front of me
Open my eyes to see my lacking and loss
And run to the arms of the One in charge
O Lord You have a perfect track record
Your faithfulness will never run out on me
Cuz You’ve never changed and never will
In my fear I turned to doubt and fear
And I tried to just do it all on my own
But I fell flat on my face failing yet again
Cuz I need You more desperately than I can say
Forgive me for my unbelief and selfishness
I know that You are God and that I am not
And I only want what You have for me
Nothing more and nothing less than that
