Prayer 4
Joined to future,
joined to past,
Your blood on my hands,
My Lord!
Speak in the mountains,
Speak in the breeze,
Speak Your love through the silence,
Speak Your peace to my soul,
My flesh calls out to you,
My heart calls out to you,
Speak to me
My Lord!
I will meditate on Your creation,
I will meditate upon Your Word,
I will sit cross-legged
upon the rock,
and think a thought of You.
Give my heart a moment
to call out to You,
My Lord!
I will not wash away the blood,
I will not cushion truth with lie,
For You are my strength,
My Love and passion,
My deepest well and bastion,
I cannot run from You,
My Lord!
Your church is my safety,
Your church is my love,
It echos with Your truth,
It drips with Your nourishing water,
Refreshes and restores.
Then speak to me,
My Lord.
I will sit cross-legged
upon the rock,
and think a thought of You.
Give my heart a moment
to call out to You,
My Lord! |
