Of This Gift Of Lonely

Of this gift of lonely, I have not recognized its Peace

And, though these rocks stone me

It is of Grace that I do not bleed

It is of Forgiveness by which You love me



High is the mountain, standing firmly above me

Thirsting in the lowland of milk and honey

The meadows bloom in Heaven’s revelry

The most comforting and free flowing of Mercy



Oh Lord, so much I don’t deserve

For though my heart was divorced from Yours

The blood in which Your body poured

Unlocked the cavern of many open doors

Through which Your song drew me towards



Like falling water from a cliffs jagged edge

You are the tributaries through which my soul was fed

You are the words through my soul once dead

Was awakened to life once again



Though the pace of life may leave me weary

You did not create a spirit of weakness within me

You are the Strength through which these words speak

You are the Source through which these waters spring



Oh Lord, so much I don’t deserve

For though my heart was divorced from Yours

The blood in which Your body poured

Unlocked the cavern of many open doors

Through which Your song drew me towards



Oh Lord, of this gift of lonely, You have given me Peace
