by Jason Kirk Bartley
Empty me, of what you desire. Burn out any bad with your Holy Ghost fire. When you see that I’m struggling in this world with my flesh. Empty me, Lord, bring out my best. When I pray to you, to surrender everything. Fill me with “you” Jesus. More of the Holy Spirit you’ll bring. I do not ask for fame or fortune, or to be taken out of the pain. I only ask that you be with me, lest I walk in vain. Make me your warrior, Christ. Teach me how to run. Help me to overcome, through the power of your Son. When everything is finished, Lord, “You” will they see. A lot more of “You,” and a lot less of me.
