Father, Use Me For Your Glory
Music and lyrics by Mike Wilhoit
I shared this with Dan Simmons and it expresses my feelings behind this song:
"This song has some similarities to Peter's thought processes, in that, he
felt like he would always be faithful. This song was written at a point in my
life where I was walking with Him very closely. I have been like Christian in
the Pilgrim's Progress, in that I have been everywhere from Vanity Fair to
Doubting Castle to Immanuel's Land. I think the important aspect to remember
is that He will honor requests like this and after He has shown us what lies in
our hearts, apart from Him, then He will accomplish what we really want and more
importantly, what He wants."
https://youtu.be/l5Sri_MjxLEWhen I read about the lives of those You worked through long ago
I wonder could I have been someone that You would have chose
Father You still must need a faithful few in whom You can believe
So I'm asking with all of my heart
Would You use me for Your Glory?
Father use me for Your Glory, I'll be a vessel faithful and true
Father use me for Your Glory, when others turn back, I'll follow You
When the battle starts I will not run, with You I'll take my stand
Father use me for Your Glory, here I am, here I am
When I gave my life to You Lord I gave it gratefully
There is nothing that is too much to ask for what You've done for me
I want to be someone You turn to, someone who serves You faithfully
So I'm asking with everything in my heart
Would You use me for Your Glory?
Father use me for Your Glory, I'll be a vessel faithful and true
Father use me for Your Glory, when others turn back, I'll follow You
When the battle starts I will not run, with You I'll take my stand
Father use me for Your Glory, here I am, here I am
Father use me for Your Glory, I'll be a vessel faithful and true
Father use me for Your Glory, when others turn back, I'll follow You
When the battle starts I will not run, with You I'll take my stand
Father use me for Your Glory, here I am, here I am
Father use me for Your Glory, here I am, here I am
