    This one I have been trying to finish for over a year now. Critque and enjoy!

    Resolutions

    I wrote my list of resolutions
    Not to create my own solutions
    I want to live like my Savior King
    Always to seek His kingdom first thing

    This list isn’t easy ones to keep
    But my redemption wasn’t cheap
    If Jesus died to redeem such souls
    Least I can strive for these goals

    My resolutions
    To walk with You in the strait, narrow way
    To always pour out my heart to you when I pray
    To give until giving is all I’ve got
    To lay up treasures that can’t be bought.
    To shine the light into the darkest night
    To lift my sword up in spiritual fight
    My resolutions

    All they can hold out is glitter and gold
    While You offer me riches untold
    Wealth of this world can’t compare to His
    This is my resolution for this

    Kingdoms may rage, scream against Jesus’ name
    And they might burn with rebellion’s flame
    I want to stand true, yet rest in Your hands
    Anchor my heart on Your commands

    My resolutions
    To walk with You in the strait, narrow way
    To always pour out my heart to you when I pray
    To give until giving is all I’ve got
    To lay up treasures that can’t be bought.
    To shine the light into the darkest night
    To lift my sword up in spiritual fight
    My resolutions

    To live every hour like it’s a new day
    To live every day like it’s a new year
    To live every year like it’s a new life
    To strive that my life be all for Him
    This my resolution
