Oh, For A Teachable Spirit! - A Prayer

Oh To Be Teachable!

Oh, To Be Meek!

Oh, To Be Willing To Be Instructed

And

Christ's Faith To Boldly Seek!

Unto Thee, Lord

I Lift Up My Eyes

To Gaze Upon Your Majesty

Even As Sin

I Decry

For

I Desire Your Blessing

And

 My Sin I'm Confessing!

I Desire In The Everlasting Kingdom

My Own Promised Place

So, Please

Father

In Mercy

Let Me Not Hanker After Things

That Tend To My Disgrace!

I Subscribe Not

To Wants Many!

I Acknowledge Of Needs

Few!

I Long For The White Robe

Of Christ's Righteousness

And

I Plead Lord

Let Me Not Lean

To My Own Understanding

So That Satan

Can't Cause Me

From Your Truth

To Be Askew!

I Am Your Child, Lord

And

I Accept Your Offer Of Salvation

Which Puts You

Under Obligation

To Teach Me

Lead Me

Guide Me

Correct

Feed Me

Get Me Safely Home

For I Commit To You

My Will

My Way

Praying Ever

In Holy Faith

To See You

With My Own Eyes

In The Day

When Faith

Becomes Face!

I've Been To The River

And

I Have Been Baptisted!

Please Pour Out Your Spirit

Upon Me

And

Don't Let Me

Prophesy

Smooth Things

Nor

Comfortable Lies!

I Am Leaning On You, Lord!

Let Me Your Ways Learn!

Let Me Be A Faithful Witness

And

Not Your Truth Spurn!

I Desire To Hear

"Faithful Servant!

Welcome!

Well Done!"

And

Pray That My Jesus

In Great Glory

Will Soon Come!

In Jesus Christ's Name

I Humbly Plead

And

In Confidence Stand!

AMEN.
