"Soaring Home"
to where now I understand as never before
that You are here.

"Soaring Home"
This world is but a grain of sand
on Gods eternal shores
the oceans are as drops of rain
dewdrops held in hallowed hands
changing shape and form
from earth to sky
until once again it's poured
to bring new life to fertile lands.
Unbound by the strands of time,
moisture filters through porous lime
deep into earth's molten core
where forgotten hopes hide behind
Heavens sanctuary door.
Indistinct, faint gleaming
roar headlong through my being
where thirsting for my God
and hungering for my Lord
sustains my search for meaning.
Oh, Lord give me wings
that my spirit may soar
And my longing for release
be filled forevermore.
Lord, send me winds
lift me up
give me more
and more
of You.
A longing borne of love
defines my need for You
ascending far above
I fly
an eagle is my soul
through eternal skies
I soar.
Higher, Bolder!
I become the sky
majestic boundless heights
leaves me awestruck
at the breadth,
of knowledge I desired.
How could I know the fire
You would create in me?
I could never have foreseen
the streams of love
flash flooding through me
Wildly, Joyously!
Free falling down the cliffs
bright fogbanks of clouds
shade mountainsides immense
through grandeur blue and azure
as a verdant sea
gliding down through stately trees
descending on sweet Heaven's breeze
this eagle finally lands
on Gods eternal shores
sinless evermore
I'm home!
The more I give to You
the higher that I soar
the more I live for You
the stronger I adore
with immortality,
WITH YOU!
To live
to love
You more.
