Perfect in One
If I had but one thing I could choose in this lifeI would choose you LordIf I had but one moment to spendI would spend it with You LordIf I had but one coin in my possessionIt would be spent for YouIf I had but one last breathIt would say I love you
Yet these are but flummery wordsFor I am just a man subject to human frailtyLike the dust blown in the windStinging the eyes, irritating the throatLike a mirage in the desertPromising hope but delivering scornAs solid as water, as ridged as the airUnless they are contained they will not hold together
Lord hold me in Your love, captivate me in Your handMay Your strength be my strengthYour focus my focus, Your Love my loveHow can I go if you aren't going?How can I stay unless You are resting?How can I speak unless You are speaking?Lord let my life be simultaneous with YouPerfect in One, lost in Your Love.
