No Longer I
by Jill M. Michaels

 

I come into your temple

With gifts of highest praise

Lay before Your altar

And call upon Your name

 

I still my wandering thoughts

So I can hear Your voice

I must know the path You’ve planned for me

For Your way is my only choice

 

For it’s no longer I that lives

But Messiah within me

My life is not my own

For Your love possesses me

I belong to You and You belong to me

My love is the Lord of all eternity.

 

I desire to please You Lord

In everything I do

Beat of your heartbeat

Side by side, so close to You

But I need to know Your hand

will guide my every step

Need to know I’ll always be

In Your arms, completely kept

 

For it’s no longer I that lives

But Messiah within me

My life is not my own

For Your love possesses me

I belong to You and You belong to me

My love is the Lord of all eternity.
