My Upmost for his Highest
The lion run, living behind his cubs,
So as the tiger,
This is who I am, selfish and inconsiderate,
Living for I, me, and myself alone.
Called to live for him,
Giving all to live for him alone,
But I see no reason whatsoever,
As though am blessed to live for myself.
That’s my old way of living anyway,
Now I found a value attached to pursue,
Like a merchant who found a pearl,
And sold everything to acquire it,
So am going to give it all to lay hold it.
One thing controls my life,
And that’s the “cause of Christ”,
For this I will live and die,
And will give it all up here on earth,
Days after days, this became my longings,
To give my utmost for his highest,
And that in all my doings,
To acknowledge the highest.
My joy is immeasurable in this,
That am living just for the cause of Christ,
For my living is for Christ,
Just as dying is gain immeasurable.
P.S.: Have you find the value attached to Christ that worth living for? Its better you do and be among the few that find it.
