(everything) is Yours
from entrance
to exit
from tears
to joy
from winding road
to rushing wave
from highest peek
to darkest depths
you are above
around
beside
from new moon's birth
from changing tide
You speak to starfields
Your grace echoes
to the distant bounds of eternity
from simplicity
to infinite complexity
Oh warrior God
lover of creation
who would stand against You?
who would pause
the divine, endless
dance
toward
this mysterious answer
yes.

Lord
i beg
right this feeble stumbling manner
look past my inward contemplation
cast down my ever present idols
mercy me to Your ever living throne.
the wickedness of my unbelief
the self help bootstrap great illusion
the lonely child of yesteryear
i'm falling through the tides of wonder
seeking first your saving grace.
Amen.

gone is the light
done is the day
thunder rumbles gently
the grace of the darkness
reminding me
calling me
toward thanksgiving
and the rain begins...

Power with grace
Mercy with Justice
a fine mixture
blessed and holy
forgiving and perfect
my Love
I lift my hands into the mystery
I see the Face of forever
close the day Lord with azure sky
ring the dawn
fair and renewed
draw me in, beloved captain
grace the earth stage with the dew.

crest and height
stand and bow
now tempest tossed
contains me now
the blood drenched cross
the burden borne
the weeping mother
broken, torn
thanks and mercy
spark and flight
rescue me from
the desperate night.
