IF I COULD

If I could understand the depths of knowledge
and live beyond trust in my wallet
If I could discern with wisdom and truth
instead of measuring myself by what others say and do

If I could stop allowing my eyes and stomach to rule
and begin exercising my senses
Eating spiritually as much and as often
allowing the word of God to be my direction

If I could put an end to the influence of insecurities
and silence the whispering lies
That attempt to take me a part from the truth
and remind me of past times

I would if I could
I will because I can
Submit myself to God and Offer my body as a living sacrafice
resisting the enemy steadfast and doing all I can to stand

Opposed to all that opposses the Kingdom of God
actively contending for the rest of the Saints
Forgiving every debt as mine has been erased
doing good to all especially to the household of faith
