Jesus Draw Me Close

Jesus, draw me close
Closer, Lord, to You.
Let the world around me fade away.

Jesus, draw me close;
Closer, Lord, to You.
For I desire to worship and obey.

This is a song that I feel is a desire of my heart right now. I want to grow closer to Him. I desire to have a very personal relationship with Him. I want Him to be the complete center of my life, to take all of my plans, fears, hopes, tears, every single thing in my life and make it completely HIS. I do not want to retain anything for myself, I only want HIM. Nothing more, the rest, God You can have. "Take my life, and let it be, consecrated Lord, to Thee." I am tired of trying to do this all myself, and not getting anywhere because I am not competent. I give up, I give in. I have been fighting for too long. Whatever You want Lord, is what I want too. Whatever You will, I will do. Give me the strength and the courage to follow, to let go, to wait, to be patient, to be willing to go where You want me, to stay when You want me, to speak Your words, to do Your will, to act for You, to be You living through me, to let my whole life and being emanate You.

I kind of turned this into a prayer, but I am only saying what I feel needs to be said.
