Just content to be a son
With no ambition to succeed In realms of earth, and have no need Of popularity's acclaim, Or purchase for myself a name In serving Christ; for He must be The Lord throughout eternity. To see His face and hear His voice, And do His bidding is my choice. Just content to be a son, A son of God without a home, To stay, or go, or wait, or roam... Hither and yon without a plan, Led of the Spirit, not of man. I'll have no monument of praise, But I'll have peace in God's own ways; And though I tread this earthly sod, I'll walk with Him, I live in God. Just content to be a son, Misunderstood, and yet I know The path I take shall overflow With life abundant and with grace. I only need to run the race With patience, waiting, seeing Him... Hearing the still small voice within. If others want the earth to quake... I'll hear His voice when I awake. Just content to be a son, No words to say... but what He says; No work to do... but what He does; No fear or worry, anxious care, I live with Him, His yoke I share... No name to make, He writes His own Upon the heart's pure glistening stone; No life to live, I lay it down, I'll share His cross... and live again. ~~ George Warnock Author/Compiler Last updated: Nov, 2011
