If I Just Think – I’m There (Romans 7:25)
If all I do is think – I’m there;
But if in action I compare
Results of thought, wrought in my mind,
With those I’ve lived – I would be blind –To see no difference – contrast stark
Twixt these results – as light to dark
In photographing – contrast high –
“My mind’s ahead – that is no lie”.Lord as I shift from mind to act,
Help me to render thought to fact,
So Your results in business life
Shine through the dark as shafts of light.Well I recall that pictured day,
With kids and lights – their quiet way
Of doing life – film captured it,
In dark their innocence was lit.Lord, I would love to share with folk
A way of life – not to revoke
The thoughts enlightened by your light,
But integrated in their life.Why is it at our church the mind
Is locus, where we weakly find
Relationship with You, O Lord,
Enriched with servings of Your word –And yet we find our lived-out acts
Are far behind – performance lacks
Attention, which we all could use,
Lest words we think be words we lose?navigation
