lead me not

i read a line
"did i get it right this time?"
i thought of how i ask
always searching, wondering
when the answer is right here
"did you see Jesus in me?'
my words, my ways, my life
i won't always get it right
but if i seek to bend my knee
He will rise above
in all i do and all i say
will show forth His love
i'm tempted to set rules
place law around my path
as if it's rigidity could stop
my feet from wandering
when instead of artifice
i bow low and listen
moment by moment i hear
Him whisper in my ear
out of surrender comes
grace overflowing
to me and through me
and i get Him
