Quickened

Holiness is my great desire

Quicken my willingness to confess…

You must provide what you require

If I would long for righteousness

I can be so dull, I go my own way

My thoughts are compromised

Lord quicken my mind I pray,

And may my heart be circumcised 

I am a frail child of dust

I am forever in your debt

In your grace alone I trust

And I will need all I can get

Dead spirits never have a choice

They need what only God can give 

They need  to hear and heed God’s voice

And then what must the living do but live?

I am a frail child of dust

I am forever in your debt

In your grace alone I trust

And I will need all I can get

In your grace alone I trust

And I will need all I can get
