A couple of months ago, I was asked to write a call to worship poem. At first I was a little nervous at the prospect, but I remember that my God is the God of all creativity, and since His Holy Spirit lives in me, I thought I would explore my creativity with this poem. Enjoy!
I’m here to open your eyes,
I’m here to open your hearts, to the one enthroned on high
He sits, majestically, positioned perfectly,
He is radiant, an unapproachable light
Righteousness and faithfulness surround His throne
His train, fills His temple.
This isn’t a myth or a fairy tale
He’s there right now, right now…
In all surpassing glory, limitless power, and incomparable majesty
He sits, He watches,
He watches you, He watches me.
Looking, looking deep within,
Looking at our hearts and all that’s in it.
You see there’s no hiding from God.
He sees it all,
Yet, He’s jealous for you…
He looks at you and He desires you…
He wants to be adored by you…
The heart of God is a blazing fire…
He’s a passionate lover of your soul…
His heart burns, yearns for your soul
God wants all of you,
All of you. That’s worship.
Every fibre, every part, every breath.
I hear him whisper, will my people worship me today?
Will they stand in honour of me?
Will they lift their hands and reach out to me?
The Lord desires our worship
The Lord deserves our worship
So let us put all else aside, and be drawn close to His side
Music resound, voices arise, hearts bowed, tears of joy,
hearts unload, anointing flow, With our whole hearts and souls, our minds and our being
Come people let us WORSHIP HIM
