Spiritual Poems:

[zaac]

In the early mornin chill
sitting up on this hill
Its been quiet here for years
since the day your blood was spilled

Afraid to look You in the eye;
at the pain so deep inside
Afraid youll say I've fallen
one too many times

But you taught me how to pray
when I can't find the words to say
to catch me when I'm falling
and fall instead into Your Grace.

in every word You say.
Every promise that You made
and every single time
You held me laughing the rain

Now my heart is quiet and still
in the space I left unfilled.
let Your Spirit take His place;
its why i'm waiting on this hill
for every every word you say...

I know You hope that I
would stop reaching for the lie
and hold tightly to the peace
I keep finding in Your eyes

I'm so glad you understand
that I am just a man
I can't do it all alone
But in You I know I can.

In between the mountains,
when You feel so far away;
remind me of your pardon;
let me rest for mercy's sake

In every word you say
Every promise that you made
come true on this old hill;
this bloody ground where I stand

I'm finding every single moment
I need You just to breathe;
I need Your spirit to light my way
in the love You came to be,

in every single word you say.

This line came into question as I was getting more of a feel for this wonderful write!
Please let me know and thanks my friend.

yes laughing in the rain...alluding to when God scoops you up in the middle of what you think is a hurricane and carries you while dancing, stopping fear and uncertainty in its tracks. kind of reflects the verse in the 103rd Psalm where it says, forget not all His benefits (gifts)
