The Deceitful Human Heart: Who Can Know It!?!

I Had Me A Real Problem
From Which I Could Not Hide!
A Problem, I Tell You, True
That With Me Always Did Abide!

My Problem Was My Evil Heart
Deceitful Above All Knowing
And
Desperately Wicked, I Can Avow
My Tattered Life Was Showing!

Of My Own Self
I Could Not My Heart Repair
Or Even To Tell You Truthfully
Its Wickedness Declare
Because
Deceit, Deceit, Deceit
It Is A Cheat
That Takes Great Pleasure
In Making Self Look Clean 
And 
Spruced-Up Neat!

I Was Tired, Oh, So, Tired
Of Living The Life Of Sin
Of Walking On A Path That
My Speech Was Surely Not Showing!

I Spoke Morning And Did Evening!
I Walked Evening And Spoke Night!
I Took Pleasure In Works Of Unrighteousness
And
That Landed Me With The Eternal God
In A Really Serious Fight Plight!

I Answered To His Name!
I Brought His Name Shame!
I Made Myself Ashamed
And
I Had No One To Blame
But
Me, Myself And I
And
My Deceitful Heart ... Inside!

Time To Revive!
Time To Reform!
To Be Made Alive!
Time For Me Never Ever Again
To The Ways Of This World Conform
But
How To Do It!?!

I Needed My Heart!
I Couldn't Just Pluck It Out!

Ahh, Yes!
I Needed The Creator!
The Justifier!
The Sanctifier!
The School Master!
The Word!
The Truth!
The Way Maker!
The One Merciful!
The One Offering Grace!
The One WHo Gives Forgiveness Asked!
The One Who Took My Place
On That Evil Cross!

But ...

Did I Dare Go And Ask!?!
Would He Turn Me Away!
Would He Say:
"Not Today!"

I Needed To Pray
A Real Prayer
And
Not One Of Those Self-Serving
Good-For-Nothing But Noise Prayers!

I Know What I Shall Do!

King David!
I Shall Have A Look At You
Who Sinned Against The Lord
The Lord, Alone
And
Who, When Corrected
Did Not Pass The Buck
Did Not Make Excuse
Did Not Turn Away
Did Not Play: 
I Do Not Know What To Say!

Create In Me A Clean Heart, Oh, God!
And Renew ...!

Yes!
Renew A Right Spirit ... Within Me!

Cast Me Not Away From Your Presence  ...!

I Know That I Deserve It!
But, Please, Dear Lord!
Help Me!
Make Me Clean!
Help Me To Turn Away From Sin And Sinning!
Help Me To Walk Right In Your Eyes!
Help Me To Stay On The Path To Salvation!
Help Me Not Look Back
Neither In My Mind
Nor Physically!

Help Me, Lord
To Live ... For You
By You
Through You
So That I May
At The Appointed Time
Live With You!

That Was It!
Come Clean!
Tell The Truth!
Ask For Forgiveness!
Ask For Direction!
Walk According To The Direction!
Despise The Love Of The Lie!
Speak Truth In Righteousness!
Do Not The Holy God Defy!
Deny The Liar!
And
To The Eternal God
With Gladness Of Heart
Cry! Cry! Cry!

Did You Know That ...

There's A Land That's Fairer Than Day
In The Sweet By And By
For All Those Who Love
Trust, Honor, Worship
And
Depend Upon And Obey The Lord
Without Fear Or Failing!

I Have Made My Decision!
I Shall Walk With God!

Master!
Let Me Walk With Thee!
I'm Trying!
I'm Willing!
I Desire To Obey!
Help Me, Lord, Please Help Me
I Desire Your Will To Obey!

Make Me Like You!
Now!
Today!
This Very Moment!
In This Hour!
I Know You Can!
I'm Inviting You Into My Heart!
Please Make It A Fit Residence
Just For You!
Fix Me, Jesus!
You, Alone, Can Fix Me!

I No Longer Walk This Vale Of Tears
Alone!
My Heart Is In His Hand!
My Life Is His ... Alone
Because
He, It Is
Who Is The One
Who ... For My Personal Sin
Did
With Innocent Blood
Sweat And Tears
Atone!

I Cannot Leave Him Alone!
I Must Stay The Course
Because
I Desire Residence With Him
In The Eternal Home!


Take My Life, Lord
And
Consecrate It To Your Service!

Never Alone + PRAYER: I Bow Before You, Lord!

Oh, My Heart
Love Thou In Faith!
Oh, My Ear
Hear Thou By Faith!
Oh, My Eye
See Thou By Faith!
Oh, My Feet
Walk Thou In Faith
For
The Lord
Your Faithful God, Loving
Is Alive
Was Dead
AND, AGAIN
Is To The Earth Soon Coming!

You Are Never Alone
Nor Forsaken
Though Mortal Man
With Carnal Tongue
Bids You To Doubt Truth
AND
With Sin
To Play Carelessly
Heeding The Press
The Throng
Who Have No Hope
AND
Know No Savior
AND
Who Diligently Love Self
With The Praise
Which To The God Almighty
Worshipfully Belongs!

Foot  ... Walk!
Eye ... See!
Ear ... Hear!
Heart ... Heed!
Oh, My Soul ... Yield
To Your Maker
Who For You
To The Earth Is Coming Back Down
With The Voice Of The Archangel
At The Trumpet Sound Of God
With All The Hosts Of Heaven
To Give Unto You
That Eternal Blessing
Which Shall See You
On The Golden Streets Of Heaven
Soon
Victorious
Redeemed
Triumphantly
Walking Happily Along!


PRAYER:

Oh, God, Most Glorious
Blessing Leading
Guiding Providing
Sustaining Sheltering
Faithful Constant
Ever True
I Bow Before You, Father! 
I Give To You My Heart! 
I Give You All Glory And Honor
And
I Beseech You To Cause My Will To Sin
From My Deceitful Human Heart
To Forever Depart!
I Surrender!
Please, My Way Chart!


Lord,
I Own No Other Master! 
I Give No False God, Praise! 
I Give No Man Your Honor
And
I Call Sin And Satan By Their Real Names!


Father, 
I Am Available To You Today
And
- If Life Be Spared - 
Tomorrow, The Other Today
When It Comes
For
I Believe You! 
I Love You!
And 
I Trust You
Thou God Of All Grace
Who Provides Now-Available Mercy
To All Those Repentant
Who Will To Have The Shame Of Sin
Taken Out Of Their Face!


Father, 
In The Name Of The Holy Jesus
Let Thy Holy Spirit Fall Down Upon Me
Indwell Me
And
Make Me Into That Creation New
For, Lord
I See
And
I Recognize My Need
For Soul Salvation!
I Am Reaching Up To You!

Father,

Remember My Brethren
In Lands Near And Far
And
In Those Other Flocks
That Are Most Assuredly Yours! 

Please Call Them Out, Lord
While Mercy's Door Is Ajar!
Protect Them, Lord
And
Provide For Them
And
Help Them To Keep The Faith
Though Others Your Name Disdain!
Draw Them To You, Lord
With Perfect Love's Golden Chain!


Please, Lord
Remember Also Your Promise
To Mark Well The Graves Of Those
Who Make The Covenant Of Blood With You
So That They
With The Then Living Trusting
Obedient Faithful Believers
Shall Be Called Up
To Rise Up
To Meet Our Savior
To Forever Sing Praises True To You!


May Your Grace Be To Us, Sufficient! 
May Our Hearts Be To You, Ever True! 
You're Our Only God
So, Please
Keep Us Humble
Striving To Be Holy
So That In That Great Day
We Shall Be As Our Savior
Fit
To Abide Forever With You!
We Are Listening, Lord!
Grant Us Your Peace! 
AMEN.
