He's still working on Me

My tree is rooted in Christ I know
He is my rock, a seed that I sow
To serve Him is out of love
Give Him glory in songs we sing of
What are the fruits my tree grows?
I try and fail this is how my story goes
I aim to please and it falls down
This is when my knees hit the ground
Why? What do you want from me?
A relationship, I know, can't you see I'm on my knees?
I beg you, I cry out, my soul earns for you.
Put me to work, what will you have me do?
Sit alone, to think and pray?
Abandoned, overthinker, I have so much to say.
The lies in my head say all hope is lost
But you say you already paid what it cost
I'm broken down and humbled by the wait
Stop trying so hard, be still, God is great
My heart still heavy after I've given it to you
I'm ready to listen stop letting logic break through
What seems small God sees the real rate
Doing what I am is what is on my plate
When I fail do I get back up and try again?
Is it over or does God say when?
Never defeated just rerouted at best
Change directions is God's little test
Faith is hope that grows with each detour
You mold us and make us to become more mature
Bends our branches but they do not break
The fruits you produce are everlasting not confused with fake
You are the potter, and I am the clay
Things will be better if I do it your way
Correction is hard no matter how far I have come
I know it with love because who it's from
A God who is Holy and His nature is true
I'm glad I was chosen among the few
I know you, I hear you, your voice is clear
Even so I might not always like what I hear
To be corrected by you means your care
For this I know I am your heir
A daughter of a king, at my weakness you still see
To make me what i should be, Christ working on me
