What does it mean to worship You

What does it mean to worship You,

What do we have to do?

Do we clean up our act,

Or form a new pact,

And leave our old ways for new?

What does it mean to worship You,

Do we hide ourselves away?

Take up vows of silence,

While inflicting self violence,

To show penance to a god by our bruise?

What does it mean to worship You,

How much is a sacrifice?

Do we give of our time,

Not the dregs but the prime,

And brag that we are totally used?

What does it mean to worship You,

Surely it’s to do as You do,

By our love and forgiveness,

We will live as your witness,

And praise You for making us new!
