pick up the pieces - zae da blacksmith lyrics

[verse 1]
god you’re so majestic and i can confess it
though you’re pure love in your essence, you’re nothing to mess with
so i pray that you’ll make a way for the strayed sheep
lest they eternally pay the wage in the lake’s heat
but please keep reminding me that your saints are elected
so i don’t rely less on your sovereignty than my methods
i long for the day to lay my eyes on your glory
not having the transgressions of the flesh stand before me
i only desire you to be my one true delight
jesus christ, the way, the truth, and the life
i want to display you through the moves in my plight
clean my vices, break my views that ain’t right
lord, this walk gets to feeling like a war
it’s hard, i talk to you digging with the sword
trying to get a little more of that strength you provide
’cause i’m heavily involved with the saints in my life
help me to exemplify your heart’s desire for your children
lest i be corrected by your purifying fire’s grilling
it’s a wonderful feeling to lift them up to the ceiling
and get in touch with the king who filled my cup to the brim, um
oh holy spirit, i want to call it a joy
when i go through the stressful*est moments i can’t avoid
help me know that it’s part of a strategy you employ
just to grow and persevere in the faith, you’re testing your boy

[hook]
my life is in your hands, lord, i’m resting in grace
i’m trying to be a righteous man as you’re testing my faith
trusting that when i break you’ll pick up the pieces
and put me back together so i’m looking like jesus
my life is in your hands, lord, i’m resting in grace
in christ’s righteousness i stand as you’re testing my faith
trusting that when i break you’ll pick up the pieces
and put me back together so i’m looking like jesus

[verse 2]
i’m dealing with these days so full of frustration
but lord i’m still amazed at your ways, you’re so patient
i’m thankful for the fact that you extended me grace
’cause without that i would have never turned my back on the world to seek your face
’cause this path is not an easy one to try to travel in
at times them fiery darts feeling like javelins
so i don the armor of god with my squad
letting iron sharpen iron, relying upon the sword
i try hard to stay about your business
but lord i’m so flawed, i drop my guard and scar my witness
i’m in this pursuit of you finding you more beautiful
i’m trying to orbit around your son like a hula hoop
but i pass on moments to take in your word, it’s
like i lack passion for your chapters and verses
i need to get immerged with your word that purges
all my pride from my verses and l*st*filled urges
lord, never let me be one that raps but don’t live it
if that’s my path, separate my flesh from my spirit
i don’t want this rapping thing to be no gimmick
when i see your face i pray you’ll say i rightly represented
and i know i’ll never be perfect while on earth but
though i’m not the sharpest tool, i pray i’m one you work with
i need you to keep me ready and steady for service
like logs standing by in a pile to heat the furnace

[verse 3]
through these ups and downs in my life, lord, i need your strength
to live exceedingly obedient and humbly represent
let the world know i’ll live and die for jesus
not ’cause of the rhymes i write or words i may recite out of a speech but
let it be ’cause of the way i live and how i give
or how i die to self, k!lling the flesh inside, dying to sin
lord, help to me be a solid stone in your temple
to put more into true worship than into an instrumental
help me to really be about it, not just one to shout it
too many hypocrites misrepresent, enticing doubters
i’ve been one of them too many times and people watch us
so help us show them holiness is not an option
may i never settle for ways of this world’s wickedness
i pray that i’ll obey and thereby display your magnificence
i pray the difference in my life will become evident
by walking how a resident of the kingdom of heaven steps
if i shine, may it be ’cause i reflect your light
not ’cause of a car, clothes, jewels, or how i wreck the mic
help me be more concerned with being right before your sight
than whether theirs or my views on a doctrine is what’s right
help me to fight temptation, when i’m faced with them i pray
that i would look upon the path you paved and then make my escape
and when i can’t ’cause i’m weak and weary from not being near thee
help my repentance be sincere and not just one in theory
i need strength and courage, god, if i’m to do your will
and it’s gotta come from you, lord, there is no muscle i can build
that can ever wield or yield divine might, ’cause for real
your word is the sword of the spirit and faith my shield
i need strength and courage, god, if i’m to do your will
and it’s gotta come from you, lord, there is no muscle i can build
that can ever wield or yield divine might, ’cause for real
your word is the sword of the spirit and faith my shield
