Steal Me Away

Steal me away

I want to be well-pleasing to You.

Through all my time with You

would You fill me through and through?

You’re coming as a thief

my house will be broken into

so

while I still have today

make me precious to You.

Lord

restore the years the locusts have eaten.

You redeemed me from a life that is fleeting;

A life of much activity

but no concern for Your deep need.

May we find grace like Noah in Your eyes.

We can choose

will we be foolish or prudent

Vessels filled when we go forth to meet Him?

We’ll be with our Bridegroom sweet

and we’ll enjoy the wedding feast.

May we grasp every opportunity.

When we rise

we must make time in the morning.

Lord

You’ll hear

our voices singing and praising.

Lord

grow in us day by day

make us stones

transform the clay;

Constitute us the men of preciousness.

We must not forsake assembling together

As we see the day draw nearer and nearer.

Thus together we’ll possess

the vast dimensions of this Christ.

May we be those who hasten Your return.
