In My Brokenness

Days so long, and nights yet longer,
My song of waiting, but growing stronger,
My heart is restless, after such brief peace,
Only half a morning of sweet relief,
Then I'm at the end, flat on the ground,
Bearing weight that pulls me down,
But here at my worst, I'm at my best,
To be used by you in my brokenness,
Let my life glorify my God alone,
Let all see He who is on the throne,
Let me be humble so you can be great,
Teach me to love, and how to not hate,
Let me be weak so you can be strong,
Teach me to live for you, my life-song,
Let me be scorned, but my God be praised,
Teach me to learn and to walk in your ways,
Undeserving and sinful, imperfectly me,
But let your light be the one that they see,
Use me so broken, use me so weak,
But grant me just this: let it be you that I seek.
