Song's are coming to me fully written early in the morning lately. This one just in!

I Want You To Be First

by L. J. Bonner

When the trials of life come, (and they always do),

Why is it that I don't come straight to You?

Even when I know I don't know what to do,

Why do I forget to remember You?

Or the good You have done, or your faithfulness,

all Your favor or undeserved kindness,

or the power unlimited You possess,

or Your Word that's revealed it's Your greatest desire

that every child who knows You will always be blessed.

Lord, when will I learn

which way I should turn?

And when will I see

You're right beside me?

I want to not wait 'til my life's at its worst,

but to hunger and thirst after You.

Even if it means I have to wait,

I want You to be my first.

When I wake to a day of uncertainty,

Why do I allow fear to take hold of me?

Even though I've been harmed by anxiety,

Why do I forget I shouldn't worry?

Because of the good You have done and Your faithfulness

all your favor and undeserved kindness,

and the power unlimited You possess,

Your Word has revealed it's Your greatest desire

for every child to call on You and so be blessed.

Lord, when will I learn

which way I should turn?

And when will I see

You're right beside me?

I want to not wait 'til my life's at its worst,

but to hunger and thirst after You.

Even if it means I have to wait,

I want You to be my first.

Because of the good You have done and Your faithfulness

all your favor and undeserved kindness,

and the power unlimited You possess,

Your Word has revealed

it's Your greatest desire that every child

to call on You and so be blessed.

Lord, when will I learn

which way I should turn?

And when will I see

You're right beside me?

I want to not wait 'til my life's at its worst,

but to hunger and thirst after You.

Even if it means I have to wait,

I want You to be my first.
