Running on Empty, Reaching For Abundant Life
Running on empty far too long Help me sweet Jesus get by! Get beyond just getting by! To live the true abundant life Before I reach for pie in the sky To bring heaven's blessings to earth Before I think to weep, sob, and cry Empower me to live again and fly Higher than my perplexing circumstances Overwhelming challenges and difficulties Make me the man I ought to be to live fully To arise above every adversity and uncertainty To powerfully push through what I'm going through To fearlessly and boldly do what I know I ought to do To not apologize for living authentically and being me To walk humbly, lovingly, and graciously among humanity To work tirelessly, but take time to enjoy life joyously To live with a childlike heart and continually uplift society To take time to listen attentively and reply compassionately To forgive, live, and allow people to evolve and also be As they too mature, grow, and follow their personal passion Let me be understanding and feel before thinking to take action Help me to sensitively and intelligently plan ahead as I progress Help me to never give any less than my absolute wholehearted best Sustain me when at the end of the day I am weary and in need of rest Give me wisdom when life and irritating people put my patience to the test Uphold and embrace me when I feel lonely, confused, and utterly hopeless Fill me to overflowing so I can rejoice and live without anxiety and stress Come Lord Jesus and turn every minus into a plus full of divine essence.
