Grace Upon Grace
Contentment poured out her sweet dew,
Raining light over my thoughts,
Rustling the most beautiful winds,
Laughing as the shadows grow old,
Inviting my heart to hold –
Moments of gentle, kindly and crimson,
Aching, flowing on the rivers of feeling,
Brave joys breathe in the pastel hues,
Grace and wonder, peace and love,
Hope upon hope – reassuring endless worship.
His spirit lifts the fallen,
Comforts hearts who grieve,
Silences the winds, the colors
Soft as kindness, pleading prayers,
Faith blends with seeds of light,
Feeding on joy and grace,
Amazing the spirit who hears,
Love beyond words, beyond poetry,
Love in the endless kiss,
Stirring up flames so fearless,
Faith, believing in the eternal, victorious.
The wonders of His saving grace,
And eternity with endless praise,
Forever and always –
He is the way….
Singing serenity, and precious praise,
Music, harmonizing with the seas of light,
Fading beyond the solace, gentle night,
Song of joy, song so alive –
Revealing the promises of a heart, a soul
Who keeps the stirrings of forever,
Peace and dreams, forever soothing away,
The doubts, the fears, the darkest tears,
Lifting the ache from a heart who might break,
Inviting the melody, a refrain often played,
By moments of grace, inspiration and faith,
Abiding in the way –
His way, His life, His light –
Forever alive, reminding the nights of His smile,
On the sincere prayer, the honest sharing,
The warmth of a sinner’s heart, changed by love,
Changed so it knows – the music of peace,
The miracle of grace and the unending faith,
Beyond every prayer – a beauty so rare,
Faded into the moments, a silence, a promise,
He is the way, the One who I pray –
Never stops forgiving sinners, never stops receiving,
Hearts who could have burned in hell,
Where they could never have felt the love,
Love that survived the worst crime, the worst fear,
Love that is alive, abiding in those who survive…
Because He lives – because He gives…
Mercy and grace, unending compassion,
To every heart who believes, every heart who agrees,
To follow Him through this life – into heaven’s light, where they’ll
forever know the love that completes, love that never dies,
love that truly satisfies!
