Our Everything
by Michael Doyle

Not just important, but our everything
Our reason for all and the joy of our being
No compartmentalizing, but our purpose
Our every reason with nothing to presuppose

All things through and of God to love
This truth we must keep above
All else that we say and we do
This truth must always be kept in view

Christ be the one thing we place first
The bringer of light and quencher of thirst
Every part of our life is an altar to the Lord
Creating the plowshares that we push forward

Life is to be lived in full engagement
In heart and attitude as our encouragement
Going forward in our Great Commission
We pray over our life's ongoing mission

It all come down to placing trust
And if you're living in faith, you must
I would rather be ashes than dust
It's what it comes to as a matter of trust
