I resolve to know You | I resolve to know You |
Deeper still | Each and every day |
Not out of feelings | To not cower from imperfection |
Or spiritual duty – | Or count life off as fate. |
Out of a predetermined will. | |
I resolve to know You | |
I resolve to know You | The only life that redeems |
To let anger melt away | Saves and restores, |
Allow You to heal | Finally a new hope brings. |
To bathe in grace. | |
I resolve to know You | |
I resolve to know You | And your salvation |
Though my present state | Beyond lofty experiences |
Be hapless and alone | Beyond pleasure, beyond pain. |
Be fortunate, great. | |
Now and year after year | |
I resolve to know You | Make my resolve, |
Through the “ins” and “outs” of faith | Challenge my will |
To carry on through the unknown | That I may know You |
To learn by mistake. | |
Deeper still. | |
“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever!” 2 Peter 3:18 |
