Who are You?
Who am I?
You are holy God Almighty…
I am small and broken…
You are Father Spirit Jesus, clothed in brilliant majesty…
I am clothed in rags…
That is who You are and who I am,
But that is not what You made me to be.
What is deeper to me than these rags?
Who am I really?
I am your glorious image bearer,
Created in Your likeness, created to be in deep fellowship with You.
Placed in a world totally filled with you and totally at war
A war that could soon claim as a casualty, my heart.
Who am I?
I am a prince/princess under a spell…
Rarely do I know my true self,
And when I do catch a glimpse of that glory…
The evil enchanter is there to cast me back into his spell.
Who am I?
I am free,
Blood bought,
Price paid,
Tetelestai… “it is finished.”
Free to reclaim that glory that is deeper to my nature.
Free to see the battle around me
Free to put on my armor and take up sword and shield and fight
Fight for that glory that I was created to bear
Lord God,
Savior,
Commander,
King
Breathe on me Your breath of life
Blow away the vile haze that has kept my mind enchanted for so long
Give life to my eyes
Touch them as You touched the eyes of the blind man
Allowing him to see who You truly are
And to enter once again into that deep fellowship with You
Let me see the battle and the enemy for who they truly are
And see myself for who I truly am
.Who are You?
You are Lord God, a boundless mystery
A deep fellowship for which I was created
And into which I am continually drawn
Who am I?
I am a valiant knight/heroic princess
Cast into a battle against Your most powerful enemy
I am a glorious image bearer
Created for fellowship with You
A deep fellowship that will last longer than time
And is deeper to my nature than any idea that the enemy may have spoken to me
While I was lost to his dark enchantment
You,
You are God.
I am your image bearer
Give me strength
Help me to see the enemy in all the ways he assails me
Help me to fight.
