The only move I make

The only move I make
by Joel Howard

"Get behind me" was the phrase
Our Lord chose to make
When tempted with the voice
Of unnatural desire,

"Make your name great!"
"Do it all today!"
"Emancipate from the 
bonds of the Father"

But no matter the voice
No matter the words
Jesus, to resting, 
would return

I, like him,
am tempted when
The busyness of life
Consumes my mind

I, like Christ, 
Have set my course
The deadly course
To follow, for

The world can't stand a child, a child
This world can't stand a faithful child
The gates of hell can't stand against a brother

Lucifer hates Jesus' bride
But as long as I'm alive
I'll use these wings to fly to my Savior!

The only move I make today
The only move I make
The only move I make today
The only move I make
The only move I make today
The only move I make
Is to lean in and tell You 
"I am satisfied"

The only move I make today
The only move I make
Is to lean in and tell You
"You're enough for me"

The only move I make today
The only move I make
Is to lean in and tell you
To lean in and whisper
Lean on your chest and tell you
"You're a Treasure"

The only move I've made today
The only card I've played
The only move I make is to say
"I love You"
