Will you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?

Heavenly Father, you always amaze me.  Let your kingdom come in my world and in my life.  Give me the food I need to live through the day and forgive me as I forgive the people that wrong me.  Lead me far from temptation, deliver me from the evil one.  I look out the window, the birds are composing.  Not a note is out of tune or out of place.  I walk to the meadow and stare at the flowers, better dressed than any girl on her wedding day.  So why do I worry?  Why do I freak out?  God knows what I need, You know what I need.  Your love is strong.  The kingdom of the heavens is now advancing.  Invade my heart, invade this broken town.  The kingdom of the heavens is buried treasure.  Will you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?  Two things you told me- that you are strong and you love me.  Yes, you love me.  Your love is strong.  Our God in heaven, hallowed be Thy name above all names.  Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.  Give us today our daily bread, forgive us weary sinners.  Lead us far from our vices, and deliver us from these prisons.
