In This Moment
Resting against his shoulder,
Where I feel blessed by my soul’s respite,
With a wonderful that can’t be spoken
My heart assumes you will just know
What it is to feel like this –
Yet, if you haven’t experienced the music
Played by love’s quiet voice,
Know that it is a love beyond bruising
A love that only God could have launched
With the melody of grace that He offers
When the twilight fades into the night
Soothing away the fireflies who whisper on the lawn,
Resting against his shoulder
My mind wanders, fading into the night
Who hesitates to destroy – the beauty I’ve found
By his side, the beauty that aspires to smile
The beauty of knowing – he is mine,
He is the one God sent me to find – the one God designed
So that I might know a shadow of what abides
In the music of love’s joy, love’s soothing, love’s choosing
A love that God sent to pour through me
The wonder of a melody beyond beautiful,
A song of light, fading into the night – reflected
By the stars, singing hope for the morning’s sun,
Resting against his shoulder
While the dandelion seeds blow quietly
Soft as the Southern sun, and just as admirable
Despite they’re a weed – they’re still a blessing
I believe and I can see, even the dandelion agrees
He is the answer sent to me, a heart who believes
God knows what I need and God always sees
Even the moon agrees
While my heart sometimes weeps,
There is the still, small voice that brings peace,
And assures me that He’s blessed me with a love
Far more alive than the endless yearning,
And I’m colored in grace, in faith, in hope
Because I live for these moments….
Resting against his shoulder,
Resting against his smile,
Resting, because I know he is the one
God sent to make me smile, for now
And always… while I can, I need to show
The world what love has done –
With a love brighter than the morning sun.
