Selfless
Every move You made was in surrender, every word You said
Was in love showing us the heart of the Father
Everyone You healed was with compassion and the life
You lived and gave was the selfless life of a servant
**
Jesus, lately I’ve been thinking
That I spend way too much time thinking about me
I can hear your Spirit call for me to take up my cross and deny myself
And to lay down my life and follow You
**
Every where I look all around me, everywhere I hear
The cries of those in need of the heart of the Father
Needing to be healed with compassion, needing to be filled
With the selfless life of the One who came as a servant
**
Jesus, lately I’ve been thinking
That I spend way too much time thinking about me
I can hear your Spirit call for me to take up my cross and deny myself
And to lay down my life and follow you
**
There are people You place in my life torn and broken up inside
They need to hear about You Lord, about Your cross, about Your blood
But I just pass them by and leave them lying there dying and bleeding
Still I go to church each week and I’ve somehow made it all about me
Yeah, I sound so sincere when I pray, “Lord, draw me near”
And I sing for joy all the while Your Spirit is grieving
**
Jesus, lately I’ve been thinking
That I spend way too much time thinking about me
I can hear your Spirit call for me to take up my cross and deny myself
And to lay down my life and follow you

I’ve been wrapped up in myself way too much. I need to trust Him and give it all to Him. The past few days have been terrible and I have made some stupid mistakes because I was only thinking of me. I need a shift in my focus from me to Him!
