I Fall Short
It’s really hard for me to express
For so long it’s
been concealed
But I really need to confess to you
Exactly how
I feel
When I think of what I lack
In becoming more
Christ-like
And think of the person I should be
It can tear me
up inside
I often wonder if I’d ever be
What you desire O
Lord
When I compare myself to you
There’s no doubt-I fall
short
It seems so overwhelming Lord
With many things to
overcome
Just to have your godly qualities
And the victory of
your Son
It often seems beyond me Lord
And I fail every
day
It hurts so much when I fall short
And stumble along the
way
Hear my heart crying out to you
O Lord, please lift me
up
Give me strength to carry on
When I have had
enough
Fill me with your Holy Spirit
Afresh today my
Lord
Guide me, teach me, and equip me
For what you’ve called
me for
I pray that even in my weakness
I’ll be of use to
you
So others will see you in my life
And want to know you
too
It’s at these times I need you more
When I feel I
cannot face
Another day where I fail you
O Lord, I need your
grace
