For where your treasure is, there will your heart be. –Matthew 6:21
Battle for My Heart
In this world day by day
Wanting so much more
Praying for the Lord to come
Awaiting what’s in store
At times my heart gets derailed
Sometimes I lose my way
Temptation beckons on my hearts door
I try so hard not to stray
Money, power, lust, greed
This world thinks very highly of
Grace, mercy, love, and joy
Belong to the LORD above
Get behind me selfish thoughts
Fall away illusions of dust
You are only temporary
Soon reduced to piles of rust
Hope, peace, eternal life
This is what I prize
Let the song of my heartstrings
Take to the challenge and rise
