I Have Cast My Lot With Jesus

I have cast my lot with Jesus

I choose Him to navigate my calm or stormy seas

I pray, I plead, my soul long wrestles with self-will

Yet, I have cast my lot with Jesus long ago.

 

I choose daily to hold His hand, to grip it ever tighter

Daily Jesus too choses to never lift His grip from me.

When sin invites and distress burns

When the spirit is drenched in darkness

When this body cowers in fears, He does not and will not release my right hand

For, I have cast my lot with Jesus long ago.

 

I have cast my lot with Jesus

Only He can steer this life's ship  - there is just no other way

I am in life's boat with Jesus, I have cast my lot long ago

I shall call upon Him each day, and grasp Jesus' strong hand ever firmer

I have cast my lot with Jesus, and in His ways I choose to stay.

I desire to do your will, my God; your law is within my heart. (Psalm 40:8)

Let the consequences of your obedience be left up to God. ~ Oswald Chambers
