Limitless
The flesh is weak, but the spirit is
willing.
In the midst of life our Lord is so
fulfilling.
Through the destruction of disease
My muscles and bones are weak.
No longer able to hold the glory
shout.
The Lord says, “I’ll give you
another route,”
And from my shouting mouth came a
writing thunder pen.
No longer able to hold a tune
From weakened, and flackened hands,
Comes the anointed music of a
painting.
It is said, “A picture paints a
thousand words.”
And so the Holy Spirit and I, we
dance around in spiritual delight.
Together we run and play all
throughout the day.
His strength it is that enables me;
as I wait in faith patiently to see the day my body is made whole.
One day I mediated about those who
have gone blind.
How their other senses increased in
time.
And from that mediation came the
realization;
In the midst of restriction, the
Lord will make compensation.
For our body houses a spirit man.
When the flesh is weak the spirit is
willing.
If I am willing and obedient, I
shall eat off the good of the land.
To live by faith makes my sprit man
stand.
When circumstances harness the body,
When metal aids surround me,
When help of others I depend on,
When I am limited,
He, my Lord, is limitless.
