I Give Myself To You

Lord, why do you not use me when I give myself to you?
Show me a path to what it is you want that I should do,
Each day I wait in readiness to answer to your call,
But all I see is nothing, just a blank and empty wall,
Is it that I've upset you?..... have I said some unkind word?
Maybe in heated moment there were things you might have heard,
Or have you found another who will do your work for you?
Though Lord, in this dire world there's work enough for more than two,
You know my heart and soul as only my Dear Lord can know,
My time is yours, I wait your word, to hear you tell me, "Go",
Don't leave me waiting hopelessly, not knowing what to do,
Please light my path, use my two hands, I give myself to You.
