What Do You See?


We don't know what we want so with you we flirt
We chose to go steady with sin so we treat you like dirt
As though you don't hurt, like you don't have a heart
Like you don't have feelings, like you don't love hard
Oh God, have we become so caught up that we have forgotten about you?
We only want you for what you give and not because you’re true!?
God forgive us for eating the wrong things
For ignoring you when you were pulling our heart's strings
Forgotten until you’re needed, Lord how dare we?
That's like a Freeman returning to the slave mentality
Your love for us is stronger, but when put you on the side
You call us to seek you but inside we wanna hide
Our hearts, this mind; our body, our time
God dwell in us so people will see the Son shine
Help us God! We need to come back to our first love
So when we wake in the morning you're the first we think of
My desire is you, yes you are my desire
Set me ablaze until I'm on fire
My God! Our hearts are far from you yet we say we love you
But when the tough times come we don't wanna go through
But what if it was so you could get the glory and honor?
Connect us like lightning and thunder
The relationship is all or nothing
You don't just want something
We give you half a box and call it a gift
Then come Sunday expecting you to give us a lift
God is that how it is? Ppl can't even tell
Our life isn't matching our confession yet we think all is well?!
How dare we say that we long for you, when we still want our stuff?
If our will is still alive, then we're saying your will isn't worth much
And we'll tell you yes, wrap up and say it's the best
But when you require more, we wanna give you less
And your simple request is that we live for u 100%
And when we do wrong we have the mind to repent
Search us o God, keep us on the potter's wheel
And help us to see that from sin we can be healed
And please reveal and rebuild; teach us how to be still
Give us discernment to know what's fake and what's real
But most of all, God we need to deny ourselves and take up our cross
To know that if we're to follow you, we must count the cost
Thank you for your redeeming blood, your love that covers like a flood
And the lamb that was slained for our sins in the form of your son
