Take My World Apart

Today I ask God to take my world apart. I am asking Him to take my world apart and rearrange it the way He wants. Maybe some pieces will stay the same, but maybe some will move. I know what I want for me but I don't know what God wants for me. So, God, it is completely in Your hands. Just show me the way.


I look beyond the empty cross
forgetting what my life has cost

and wipe away the crimson stains

and dull the nails that still remain

More and more I need you now,

I owe you more each passing hour

the battle between grace and pride

I gave up not so long ago

So steal my heart and take the pain

and wash the feet and cleanse my pride

take the selfish, take the weak,

and all the things I cannot hide

take the beauty, take my tears

the sin-soaked heart and make it yours

take my world all apart

take it now, take it now

and serve the ones that I despise

speak the words I can't deny

watch the world I used to love

fall to dust and thrown away

I look beyond the empty cross

forgetting what my life has cost

so wipe away the crimson stains

and dull the nails that still remain

so steal my heart and take the pain

take the selfish, take the weak

and all the things I cannot hide

take the beauty, take my tears

take my world apart, take my world apart

I pray, I pray, I pray

take my world apart.


Take it apart God. Take it apart. I trust you. I am Yours. Take me apart.


Song of the moment: Worlds Apart (Live) by Jars of Clay. (those lyrics in the middle is this song by the way. So, thank you Jars of Clay for that)


Do not let others look down on you because you are young bet set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

1 Timothy 4:12
