humble yourself before the Lord
and He will exalt you

1 peter 5:6-7
may i rejoice in my humility
for to be humbled in my eyes
is to be exalted in Yours
to be emptied of me
leads to fullness in You
such beauty
to be known
when life is not of me
but of You
may the distance between You and i
only serve to magnify
the mercy of the One who unites
why should i stand afar
when You extend Yourself to draw me?
do not let me hide away
from the sight of You
for the Light humbles Itself
to exalt the humble
such beauty
to be known
when life is not of me
but of You
and He will exalt you
