Love Has a Name

One Last Breath

Oh Lord oh Lord you hear my cry
From throne so high you keep me daily from my own demise

You count my tears, you remove my fears
You fight for me inside the ring you truly are the Risen King

The love you have is endless I cannot count how many times I had to start again
Yet each day anew you send me on a journey, your strength alone my cornerstone

With you Jesus I cannot fail
On my knees I cannot speak with teardrops falling I only wail
You protect me, you guide me, you took my nails

Mere words inadequate to offer my thanks
I have nothing you don’t already call by name

The blueprints of the universe lay in your hands
You are the Creator, my Creator

Your pain your sorrow on the cross
A story of loving sacrifice over which I cannot gloss
I come to you empty with hands high and arms apart
I offer you nothing… here please just take my heart

Take it as you see fit
And within me forever, I pray, your Spirit you will knit

Reach inside and take hold of my deepest, darkest weed
Burn it, thrash it, grow your fruit from a single seed

Jesus, over you no-one claims victory
Your name be glorified for all eternity

Inhabit my soul and give me all I need, for the only thing I crave is with you to forever stay
Until the day you call me home
To remain forever in communion with you Father, Savior, Holy Teacher is what I’ll pray…

All of this I ask in Jesus’ name.

Amen.
