'LIVING ON BORROWED TIME', BY GARY HEAVIN- A VERY RELEVANT WORD FOR TODAY

Living on borrowed time

This day I live 
Lord I know it would not be mine
But a precious gift from you
Given one day at a time

My time is yours
It’s you I’ll serve
There’s nothing I’ve done
For this life to deserve

I pray you find me useful
With your holy plans
That you may send me
To people, battle or foreign lands

For you I’ll go wherever 
And do your perfect will
I know you have plans for me
That I desire to fulfill

I know that I am worthy
But not for what I have done
My strength, my power, my authority 
Comes only from your Son

In His name I will stand and fight
And this day I will proclaim His glory
I will take back the enemy ground
Serving my creator will be my story

We find a mind of doubt 
Yes there’s a price that we must pay
Fear, confusion and selfishness 
All can get in the way

But deep inside
Not body not mind 
But spirit eternal
Will be where we find

The essence of our being
The force of who we are
A living soul created in the image of an almighty loving God
Destined to live forever in His midst among the very stars

It’s in these depths of soul that we must search
If we are to live and fight and love 
With the courage that is necessary 
To be useful to the One above

Lord let me remember 
That this day is only mine
To serve and honor and love you
Because I’m living on borrowed time
