Oh God you are very gracious
To have stayed in my back pocket for
so many years.
You were pulled out and dusted off
In times of crisis-
(there were many such times).
I loved You then and I love You now
But I’m tired of self-made trials.
Lord, be LORD of my life.
Take Your rightful place as King.
I don’t suppose that my own will
can evaporate into nothing,
But I could store it
in my back pocket…
