I'm learning how to spend time with the Lord

I'm learning how to spend time with the Lord.
Beginning to believe not how I feel.
But trusting in the Lord's accomplishments,
  His sovereignty. (Proclaim: "Yes, Lord, I see")
Why are you still defeated, little one?
As if I'm not the all-inclusive One.
Believing that I am, just look away,
  Away to Me.
2
We certainly will fail time after time.
At times we're too ashamed to turn again,
Just stop and breathe yourself out on the Lord,
  And breathe Him in. (Proclaim: "Oh, Lord!")
When there's no rest in me, He is my rest.
When there's no peace around, His peace is best.
We know Him through His word, the Spirit brings
  Reality.
3
Present your body, in His presence stay.
He's faithful and adept all to arrange.
He's writing His own history today,
  Give Him the way. (Proclaim: "Lord, today!")
He's always there to give us what we need.
Our oldness turns to newness—He's the Spring!
He turns our deadness to enlivening
  By dispensing.
4
So put your introspective mind at ease,
He calls us, "Look away and feast with Me!"
Don't try to analyze so many things.
  Love and believe. (Proclaim: "Yes, we believe!")
So call on Him, your open spirit bring,
Not busy with so many outward deeds.
His Body's rich supply and covering
  Will guard our being.
5
Don't be afraid to give yourself to Him.
Remaining whole and guarded, we miss Him.
The Body's life supply the members bring,
  While opening. (Proclaim: "We open, Lord!")
I need the other members; they need me.
We take the loving way excellingly.
His love is the unique enduring thing
  To make us Him.
