As a Christian, loving Christ, every time I screw up--and I screw up big--becomes a stumbling block for me on my road to walking with Him or serving him in some way.

Making these videos is not easy, even for the simple production I've put into them. It takes a lot of coordination. My wife helps me quite a bit...just to keep me sane! (Yes, it's much less stressful with 2 people.)

When I fall down during the week or making the videos, it puts me into a tailspin. The only thing that allows me to get back up again and serve our Messiah is God's mercy and forgiveness. His grace gave me this song much easier this time. Thank you Lord!

This song is about asking God to use me even in spite of my past and present failings and sin. I hope you enjoy it...and if you identify with it, I hope singing it helps you on your journey with Him. Amen. Amen!

Lord, I Want to Know (Lyrics)

(Inspired by Psalm 51; Luke 19; Matthew 14; John 21)

Oh Lord, remain with me!
I’ve climbed the sycamore tree
And come into the the story...
To see you in your glory.
Before, I am gone,
I’ll put to song
All I’ve done wrong.
Do I...still belong?

Lord, I want to know…
If somehow you will use me…
If there’s still an opportunity
In spite of my falling down,
And I just want to go
Wherever you are leading.
If storm and sea are meeting,
Then hold me before I drown!

He said, "Simon, do you love Me more than these?"
"Feed my lambs."
"Do you love Me?"
"Then, tend my sheep."
He asked me, "Do you love Me?"
I said, "Lord, You know all things;"
"You know that I love You."
He said, "Feed my sheep."
"Follow me."

Lord, I want to know…
If somehow you will use me…
If there’s still an opportunity
In spite of my falling down,
And I just want to go
Wherever you are leading.
This time I am conceding,
So hold me before I drown! Yeah!

Before I am gone...
With all I’ve done wrong,
Do I still belong?

Lord, I want to know…
If somehow you will use me…
If there’s still an opportunity
In spite of my falling down,
And I just want to go
Wherever you are leading.
As time goes by I’m pleading.

Lord, I want to know…
Is there still an opportunity?
And I just want to go...
Lord I am pleading.
