about

Jacob Smith: trumpet

lyrics

I feel a great inadequacy when I’m not occupied,
And I’ve found that humility shares the same object as my pride.
Diligence and entitlement, I struggle seeing the line between,
Especially when I am convinced I’m working for God-given dreams.

Oh, to be gripped with an understanding of myself.
Oh, to be convinced of the fullness of Christ, my Lord!

Sometimes it’s so tempting to grope around for lessons
When I’ve lost my job and the rain pours into my house I can’t afford to fix.

Oh, to be gripped with an understanding of myself.
Oh, to be convinced of the fullness of Christ, my Lord!

Won’t somebody please just now tell me
Where it is that I need to be?
As God seems to dash every single dream,
He reveals my self-sufficiency.

Oh, to be gripped with an understanding of myself.
Oh, to be convinced of the fullness of Christ, my Lord!
