spoken

How your kindness moves inside my soul
How your love seeps deep into my heart.
I don't deserve your goodness, your grace.
When I finally turned to face the light
..I was loved, all of this time..
My heart cracked and broken inside me -
Why did I fight you day and night
Moment by moment, I sought my own demise.
Unwittingly partnering with destruction.
Now I see his ugly mangled face for what it is..
The black tar of death, his cloak covering the truth.
His charade cannot hold me back..
It holds no sway over me now.
You are all I see.
Your presence surrounds me day and night.
Soft as petals, gentle as the rain in the spring.
Jesus, you are Beautiful and unlike any other..
You keep loving me... I will never have enough
Until my body and soul break apart -
And nothing can hold you inside me anymore
You have made me like the stars in the heavens
Given me wings like the angels
And love to light a thousand fires..
Burn the dross from my spirit
And dress me in eternity...
I want to see you
I want to touch you and taste you and know you
The secrets you keep and the places you go...
You are more real to me than anything I have ever known.
Take me to where your house is
Let me live in the rooms there - I will walk in the open places
I can't help but stare at the skies of heaven with you - nothing separating us
Our memories never fade, this love lives forever.

Your depth inspires me to run to the Father
