Abiding Time

Beauty in the simple things –

Flowers, sky and grass.

Hopeful in the daily things,

Your guidance all I ask.

I turn my heart to you each day

And ask to be Your light.

Walking in the paths You’ve tread,

From morning into night.

And now the whispers in the wind

Remind my soul of You.

I feel Your hand upon my heart,

Oh Lord, please keep it true.

For just beyond horizon’s reach

The plans of Yours unfold,

Always with the best intent,

Our dreams You weave and hold.

So, in the stillness of this morn

To You I turn my face –

Abiding love and hope and truth,

I love You Son of grace.
