Still Waters
Vanilla clouds silence the winds,
Pouring out peace upon tempting skies,
Blessed by beautiful hues, blue truths…
Stirring the sounds of a memory,
Hesitating, hurrying, healing hearts
So the everlasting can color and sooth…
Oceans of light, poured out on the earth,
Singing grace through the hope’s dreams,
Bringing faith to those who doubt grieves…
Sunshine skies and autumn wonders,
Invite me to believe, to delight, to ponder,
From the forest, through trees, beneath leaves…
Breathless poetry and prose, soothing,
Comforting the roaring, trembling, consuming,
Hearts who forget the music of God’s grace…
He is listening to every prayer, all who praise,
Warming the moments, assuring, consoling,
Stilling the shadows and fulfilling the hearts…
Who seek Him, with absolute assurance,
That He is alive and He is the love that abides,
Whatever comes, wherever life leads, eternally…
He is the reason I can see – beyond the dreams,
To the everlasting grace, the sweetness of His face,
The song of love so strong, the beauty of His embrace…
Because He lives – because He gives
I know what it is to believe fully,
To know the meaning of His purity….
I know what it means to love without reason,
To give, to serve, to love because He’s mine,
To love because He’s the light, the divine…
Shining all through time – lighting each heart that decides
He is the meaning of life – He is the Creator’s best design
He is the reason I’ll lay down my pride, to seek Him,
With a heart who is humbled by His gentleness,
A soul who is loved because He is God’s Son,
A spirit who sees beyond the weakness that is me…
To the hope that comes from knowing…
That light that just keeps glowing,
That love that is ever flowing….
From Jesus, my Savior – the amazing who I’m praising!
