Revive Me...

I was in the mood for something different today, so I put in my Shane & Shane "Psalms" CD on the way to school. I hadn't listened to it in a really long time, probably a year or more.

I was struck by the lyrics to their song that comes from Psalm 143. The song really spoke to me where I am today. Sometimes I find myself very distracted from God and don't really know why.

It truly is my prayer to be revived, and just like the song says...NOT FOR ME, but for HIS NAME! May my life reflect his righeousness, because I have none on my own.

"PSALM 143"

Hear my prayer, give Your ear
In Your faithfulness answer me
In Your righteousness do not judge, for no one is righteous

Teach me to do Your will Lord for You are my God
Your Spirit is good good good
lead me on level ground Lord for You are my God
Your Spirit is good it is good

Revive me, revive me
Not for me but for Your name
In Your mercy, deliver me from my enemies
Revive me

I rememebr days of old
Your works I meditate, oh Lord
I consider all the works of Your hands
I lift up my hands to you my soul longs
