Vessels of Love, Truth and Light

I want just to go to the mountain with You,
I’m tired and I’m weary,
But I know I’m to stand firm, firm in You,
A tree planted by the water with roots growing deep -
Set aside to be Your vessel of love, truth and light.

Fill me with Your strength and Your Spirit,
Romance me away from the cares of this world.
Even with battles around and enemies on each side,
All I’m to do is fix my eyes on You,
To be Your vessel of love, truth and light.

All I’m to do is wait,
Then yield to You – at the appointed times,
To live for You from the depths of me,
Letting words pour forth -
Living Water from a vessel of Your love, truth and light.

Everything’s wholly Yours,
And all is in Your hands;
So set Your Spirit upon me – fill me up,
Let me pour forth for Your glory,
Consecrate me as Your vessel of love, truth and light.

“Prepare the way, prepare the way,”
I sense Your return at hand;
“Prepare our hearts, prepare our hearts,”
Put down all that exalts itself above You.
“Raise them up, raise them up,”
Those who will seek after Your heart,
“Let us seek, let us seek,
To do His will whatever the cost.”

To do justly and love mercy,
To walk humbly with our God:
Anoint us for Your glory,
Compel us by Your love,
To truly be Your vessels of love, truth and light.

Proclaiming the year of the Lord’s favor,
And the day of vengeance of our God:
Pour out Your Spirit upon us,
And let us stand firm in You, God,
Your wholly consecrated vessels of love, truth and light.
