don't forget to forget the self
decreasing, no need to use that time, that energy
On what's dead, not real
Increasing, He lives - He's given all: life, power, freedom
Free to let go of the self, free from the slavery of feelings,
of performance, of license, of our own understanding ....
free to be owned by You, to be Yours, Yours forever
forever has passed us, is now, is future
look at the eyes
the eyes are the closest we get
the closest we get to see someone's eternity because
we have flesh, but are not flesh
not the face, not the hands, nor feet, nor body
but the eyes.
His eye sees, He sees
someone said, "Remember me!"
it was the dust, he said
deliver us from the weariness,
the idols, idols to ourselves, of ourselves
the weariness of the burden, the lies that we
are more than dust, and that You do not see
