I Shall Not Want

2/3/2018

 
Today, I feel like I don't have enough: enough energy, enough organization, enough gifts, enough of me.  When I feel this way, I like to listen to this song as my prayer, and my affirmation.  I shall not want.  Listen to the music by clicking above (sorry for the ads) and read the lyrics below.  And join Brightwood Christian Church on the journey to becoming the beloved community of God.  We worship on Sundays at 11.

I Shall Not Want by Audrey Assad

From the love of my own comfort
From the fear of having nothing
From a life of worldly passions
Deliver me O God
From the need to be understood
And from a need to be accepted
From the fear of being lonely
Deliver me O God
Deliver me O God
And I shall not want, no, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness, I shall not want
From the fear of serving others
Oh, and from the fear of death or trial
And from the fear of humility
Deliver me O God
Yes, deliver me O God
And I shall not want, no, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness I shall not want
No, I shall not want, no, I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness I shall not want
When I taste Your goodness I shall not want
I shall not want
I shall not want
Songwriters: Audrey Assad / Bryan Brown
