Come to Me Come as you are
Ego behind you I look Upon the heart Gaze on Me I made each flower In the Book It is written of Me I do this for you I give My life That you May have peace I stand at your door And knock My hands were pierced For you The Master came to serve In humility Listen to My Still small voice I shed my Blood As an offering The bowl of My body Broken My perfection Will suffice Everlasting is my love And my devotion I prepare a table for you Ask you simply to believe I have poured My heart for you
