If I am not on bended knee
How can I even start to "see"?
I will not know just Who You are
If I just watch You "from afar".
On bended knee the heart grows soft,
For I will change as I pray oft.
There I learn to know Your power.
How MUCH I need You every hour!
For all my needs You are sufficient,
And with Your help I am proficient.
True perspective is the key,
Which comes from time on bended knee.
"Surely I will not come into the tabernacle of my house, nor go up into my bed; I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids, until I find out a place for the Lord, an habitation for the mighty God of Jacob."
Psalm 132:3-4 KJV
