You had to reach down So very, very low Because At times life to us can deliver Such exceedingly cruel blows AH, But the joy at seeing your face Come to save(as always) I reach up for Your hands full of Your overflowing grace!
So hold your breath Get ready Christ remains always steady Dependable, ALMIGHTY Wait and you will see Your Refuge, our Rock Our Creator LORD He will enable all believers In Him once again to soar Above this world's chaos Pain, suffering and loss Even though it may come For you at a great cost
But you can rely upon HIM To eternally win Our Immortal souls, Us in His forever love to keep As in His Paradise We will all Dance joyfully In the Light-filled Glory At His Feet!!
Irresistibly drawn To this light Stronger and stronger To this urge I fear I no longer Feel a stranger
Increasing almost Every day Sometimes in More than one way Like a moth to the flame Hearing You speak my name I beat my frail wings Against the thin veil Of this flesh Separating for now You and I Ah at times can Life be quite the test!
Yet today I can just be still At the command of my God's will And enter into His desired rest Which at times I must confess For me is hardly ever easy So for now I will warm my wings As I listen heaven still sings Of the warmth, glory in the light Cascading from Your Wondrous love & might!
Radiating your goodness Wonderfulness, magnificence Made us to share in Your youness Through You For you Alive only at your request This rare unique gift Gives me joy
All your beauty Shining overhead In each star Each glowing planet In each blushing flower Every human smile Living in each act Of kindness I adore you Idolize only you Life, goodness, purity Love, perfection Gushing from you YOU are our JOY! Praise You, Lord God Praise You!
I will not listen I do not care So go ahead Spit your ugly words Out into this darkened air
I have a Holy Savior Jesus Christ is His Name You no longer Have the power To cause Him any pain
He now sits enthroned Above this swirling globe For you see All my sin With His royal blood He most joyfully atoned
Today it does not matter How much evil you Spew forth For as my tiny life Winds down Runs out its only course
I choose Christ On Him I set my sights He is the greatest Lover of my small soul Even though You may seek Upon me to take A deadly toll Against HIM You always lose!!
How do you Not want to pray Every single day Not have something To say To the One who made you
Don't you secretly hope Dream, desire, wish To see something higher Much better than this Ugly, mass of confusion The abuse?
Such great physical beauty All around us Literally trying to Pound into us The magnificence Of its Creator He uses all living things As His great theatre
So lean into His Spirit In Eternity will you live Never to regret it So pray now, Pray hard Empty out your heart For you It will create The beginning To your soul's Blessed, new & fresh start!
