Setting the table

 Oh Jesus 

My circumstances 

Were never 

For my

Comfort 

Your glory 

Comes

My need 

To be coddled 

I’m not 

To chase

An idol

That only 

Brings 

A sorrow

You carried 

Because 

My words

Were read

But that’s 

Where it stopped 

The only way 

To get you

To worship 

Me and not 

Your selfish greed 

Was to 

Wreck your dreams 

To give 

You 

Better plans

Mine
