I Just Know that I Belong toYou
I don't always know what it is that I should do,
and I don't always do it, at those times I know I knew.
What I hoped for when I started, isn't there when I am through.
I just know that I belong to You.
When I see the people in the places You send me
I don't always see them as you would have me see.
Nor do I look at them the way You look at me.
I just know You came to set us free.
When I belong to You, and I know that so do they,
we must walk together, following your way.
"Lord, You know I love You, more than I can say,"
I just know You gave another day.
On the twin commandments, the law and prophets rest.
And on the day of judgement, not one would pass the test
who heard the first Commandment, and truly did their best.
I just know You came to give us rest.
Working like a slave to bless our fellow man
To keep the golden rule as often as we can,
In guise of self-denial, we miss the Father's plan.
I just know You came to live as man.
If we come to love You, with all our heart and mind,
and all our soul and strength, may You help us find,
The Great and twin commandments, inextricably you bind.
I just know you came to heal the blind.
Help our congregation, in love and godly fear
to hear the word you gave us, and going forth from here,
by the power of Your Spirit to obey as You have beckoned:
No longer keep the first command so fearful of the second.
