You are the painter

I am your canvas

Do with me oh Lord 

As you see fit

I am yours and only yours

I’m at a place of peace

And nothing could stop me

And if anything tries to

I know how to handle it now

I’m forever changed

Since that night I rose from the grave

You hold me close 

I’m finally free

Lord I am your canvas

Do with me as you please.

The old me died 

That cool January night

I was called forth finally

And Lord I thank you.

I’m still working through it all

But Jesus I’m free

Jesus you have freed me.

When I see certain things

I’m reminded of his death

And I’m thankful

I’m never going back

I’m moving forward in the name of Jesus.

I died that night

But I left there alive

I came back from the dead

Stronger and better

Fresher and brand new.

Lord I thank you.

I don’t know who that was

But that wasn’t me.

I prayed for the death of that man

For as long as I could remember

And it finally took place

As I laid on that floor

I finally felt free

I finally feel like me again.

But better.

Tonight I realized that I’m growing

I’m more present than ever 

The fog has lifted

The dark years are over

Lord the morning is here now.

I was in the clouds

Disconnected from my body

And myself entirely

Until you came down and saved me.

I felt so much temptation tonight

But Lord you were with me through it all

I let myself be held by you

And father you manuevered me through.

Tonight was the first time in a very long time

I’ve felt like a grown man

And not a child

Or a 15 year old

I’m almost 23

And I finally feel my age.

Lord I thank you 

That you’ve taken me as your son

I was made in your likeness

But I pray that somehow I look like you.

In my actions and how I love others

Because I wanna be more like you.

Lord I’m not who I was

I’m a new man

A brand new and fresh canvas

Fully surrendered to you 

Fully surrendered to your will over my life

No more thinking

That I’m the Greatest

The last six years were simply 

A prologue into what you have for me

And I’m so excited…..
