On
this day I do accept
Me
for who I am
Of
others whether kin
Or
not in part
My
heart it must release
My
soul be satisfied
In
Him who accepts
No
matter what
I am
Oh
love come swift
Come
take thy hold
Upon
me
Give
me boldness
To
see that which long
My
eyes distorted
Did
refrain to see
Believe
My
mind so clouded
Enshrouded
in
Self
doubt and pity
Beyond
itself
Broken
I am
And
beautiful
To
you
You
who make me
Acceptable
and true
Bind
me to your
Heart
Give
me acceptance
For
those too as I
Broken
banished and bruised
Grant
me joy in service
For
those in need
May
selfishness
Drift
and selflessness
Feed
For
all we need
And
all we hope
We
cannot
We
dare not
On
our own
We
need thee
We
find thee
Our
source
Provide
Now
give us hearts
And
minds
That
will abide
To
welcome
And
warm the coldest
Of
hearts with love
From
you who only
Can
make all
Things
new
-Joshua
