GOD’S Pursuit by BW 4 Christ
My prayers need answers
Answers that I seek
For a strong soul that is often meek
That pursuit doesn’t always take me to YOUR book
For I never know where to look
Sometimes it’s in the course of a day
That the answers come across my way
Other times it’s in YOUR pursuit of me
That you use the things I see
For YOU created me visually
It’s in the trees so strong and tall
It’s written on walls
Maybe a program on TV
Music that strikes the very heart of me
YOUR pursuit, YOUR woo, YOUR courtship, OUR relationship
All depends on the answers that I seek
For that soul that’s strong but often meek
That sometimes needs a wake up call
The cause for that fall
Just so I have no choice but to look up before the ground swallows me whole
And I lose that strong soul
That YOU created from the beginning
Set in a fallen world of free will
That keeps on sinning
Answers that it continuously seeks
A soul forced to be made weak
YOUR pursuit to capture just so YOU can make it free
Looks into the very heart of me
Patiently silently knocks at the door
With hope once more
Expecting just once chance
To break down the walls with no romance
Strongholds that were built in more than one night
Gave the devil his delight
Holding on to the lock and key
Swallowed up everything
No peace, self-control, hope or joy
Permanently scarred grown humans that used to be girls and boys
But that pursuit that YOU do
If we allow ourselves to be captured
We’ll be stuck to YOU
Living life more abundantly
Made whole and free
Strongholds washed away
Peace, joy, hope and all the other good fruit here to stay
No matter if it rains wet
But YOU dry with just YOUR breathe
Cause YOUR pursuit means we have met
That pursuit means the thrill is never gone
Away goes those sad songs
Cause YOU have reached and mended the very heart of me
YOUR pursuit, woo, courtship, relationship says
