Be careful what you ask for...

My life in places is twisted and overgrown
I am bruised and dirty and wander on my own
You stop and turn Your attention to me
Reaching down from heaven to tend to me
I trust You

Cut away, cut away all you see
Cut away, cut away the sin in me
Cut away so I can see
I can be free
Cut away

My choices have left me ragged and scarred
I trust you to heal me remind me I'm yours
Your life flows in me as I remain in You
Your faithful to finish Your work in me

Cut away, cut away all you see
Cut away, cut away the sin in me
Cut away so I can see
I can be free
Cut away

You bend, You mend, You mold, You break
Lord do with me whatever in takes
You bend, You mend, You mold, You break
To seperate me from this world

Cut away, cut away all you see
Cut away, cut away the sin in me
Cut away so I can see
I can be free
Cut away

Thank you Lord for cutting away the things in my life that don't belong and have gone astray.  Thank You for also pruning back those things that you want to keep but are overgrown.  I feel true growth for the first time in a long time.

i've been afraid of praying this prayer for so long. your life is an example to me of why it's a prayer worth praying.
