STATE OF THE UNION

It's time to take inventory; time to reflect
It's time to look forward; time to look back
What is the state of our union, Lord?
Are You the One Whom I am looking for?

Shining God's light all around my heart and life
It's hard to let go of some things but it's right
What is the state of our union, Lord?
Are You the One Whom I am looking toward?

Every moment of every hour of every day
It's time to fast again for a friend; it's time to pray
What is the state of our union, Lord?
Are You the One Whom I am looking forward to?

        Thank You Jesus for renewing Your vision within me
        By faith, I hope again with Your love:  these three
