SELF WILL

 

Thy Will Be Done by Jay Bryant Ward

 

I pleaded with you on bended knee

My fears to dissolve.

You sat in silence

Hoping I would give You

what You yearned the most to own:

My self-will,

My hesitance to relinquish control.

In the end I gave it up

And found solace to my soul.

 

Yes, You said,

Now you understand.

I paved the way

In Gethsemane long ago.

- CATHRYNE ALLEN 

THE VEIL

 

I stood at the veil

As You were about to leave

Sorrowing that not all would believe.

 

I prayed for the Father’s power

To protect Your gentle heart

From the blow that might tear You apart.

 

I knew my soul You would save

And all Your promises You would fulfil.

I stood at the veil, unable to leave,

Holding Your crown for You to receive.

 

I stood and waited that fateful day

In awe of what You did to pave the way.

I could scarcely comprehend

Your godly enduring might

I stood at the veil and gave You my heart.
