Shelf

I give God all the glory
And save none for myself
I have already told my story
But you just put it on the shelf

I give God all the praise
For He is the only one worthy
His own life did he raise
As I am the one unworthy

But His mercy is boundless
His forgiveness quick
Could not settle for less
As I cannot heal the sick

For I myself am more sick now
And in dire need of healing
Prayers for myself are just not how
Just goes to show all or nothing

They know not I am in need
But their prayers are for themselves
So instead I planted love’s seed
With plenty of books on the shelves
