What do you see?

Without you I am nothing more than a cadaver


Moving about feeling like nothing matters


Useless flesh waiting to decay


Running a race and waiting for my day




Then one day I awaken from my death


Come to life and breathe you in with a sudden breath


Feeling at first like a newborn child


Taking baby steps hoping to see you smile




Still running that same race


Waiting for glimpses to see Your face


Bowing down to Your throne


Do I do it cheerfully or with a slight groan?




Very much time has passed me by


Still not sure how I look through Your eyes


Living my life in a grim disguise


If I am not living my life for You, I'm living a lie




Then one day a beautiful change


I found out who I am in You, and why I was made


To bring Glory to Your Great Name


and do it with an obedient heart that has no shame




Giving thanks for this new me


hoping when your eyes gaze upon me


it is You that You see
