Dear God! Give me patience or COME QUICK

My spirit doesn’t rest anymore.
It hasn’t known of peace or sleep.
It hasn’t learned to rest in flesh.
My spirit burns to stand the test.

And in the haze I cry, My God,
I pray my flesh to be no more
I pray for everything to die
So my life might be rectified
And in the sorrow, I cry, HOLY—
Won’t you consume me fully?
Lord, I’ve got no peace in all my days,
So in my darkness, guide my way.

Oh Jesus Christ, sweet Jesus—
I haven’t known consistency,
I haven’t any truth in me,
but how you move and live and breathe.

So be my every waking moment,
and do not leave me when I sleep.
In all the earth I’ll proclaim GLORY,
Glory to the only King.

Take me away, far, far away,
I don’t desire anything,
but that you wipe me clean,
that you don’t leave anything in me
that might keep me from my King.
