Captured By...

In a Society
Captured By
Sin and the Plessure Within
I Found Myself Captured By the Same
Running After a Life of Wealth and Fame
This World had so Much to Offer
I Could Go to USF and Become a Doctor
Or Mizzou and Be A Lawyer or Writer
I Could go to Some Tech School and Fix Computers
Or a Beauty School and be a Hair Doer
And as Great as this All May Seem
Making Good Money and Living the Dream
I Soon Realized....This World Really Didn't Have Much to Offer
I Could Find Way More at the Altar
See this Never Really was My Dream
God had Other Plans for Me
Since I was Small
I was Captured by a Call
A Call to do Great Things
A Call to Ministry
But I Ran and Hid
Lord, You Don't Want this Kid
I'm nothing special
My Family isn't in church
I've Got backage and Hurt
I'm Broken and Bruised
I can't be used
But John 14:12 says; "The Things That I do You Shall Do Also, Even Greater"
And Who Am I to Doubt the Creator
He Said He Would Make a Way
And Only by is Mercy and Grace
I stand Here Today
Once Captured My Own Will and What the World Said Was Cool
I'm Now Captured By God's Will and this School
But Enough About Me
I Don't say this for My Own Glory
But to Open Your Eyes
What Are You Captured By
This World and Its Sin
Making Big Money or Fitting In
For Some of You it's Your Boyfriend or Girlfriend
Or I Don't Know
Call of Duty and Halo...
Nah I Know You Know Better Then That
You've Been Called and You Can't Deny It
You can Hide From It or Fight It
All You Can Do is Say
"Lord, Here I Am
Ready
To Do Whatever It Takes
No Matter the Sacrifice I May Have to Make
I Can't Do Any Thing Other Than This
I've Been Captured and Thats All That's to It."
