Centre of Your will

Center of Your Will

Living in this temple, dealing with this clay,
I've been known to compromise,
You have seen me turn away
Though I am distracted by a temporary thrill,
I could never live outside the center of Your will.

Resolutions broken, promises unkept,
You have held my faithless heart
Like a father while you wept.
I've been on the edge before and I have felt the chill,
But I could never live outside the center of Your will.

Keep me in the center of Your will,
Keep me in the center of Your will.
In the center of Your will.

I am bought and chosen, servant to the throne,
Following a higher call for my life is not my own,
Though I sometimes fear this place, and find it hard to fill,
I could never live outside the center of Your will.
