UP DOWN

Coming up from the bottom
to breathe again
I am going back down
I am going back in
Cannot stay where it is comfortable
while the world drowns in sin
I must go into all the world
and tell the good news again
To the tired, lost, and poor
Sharing the Way, the Truth, and the Life with at least one more.

LET ME KNOW

Blue skies, storm clouds
Feeling nothing sometimes
Except the constant eternal battles of life
The skies seem dark and heavy, my heart races on
With expectation of what might appear
after the night is gone...

Changing seasons, heading home, and the yet unknown
The journey is relentless, traveling through
The path is not seen but You let me know
There's more to what I see if I will only look to You

Facing difficulties and hardships
Faith refuses to give up
Hope always believes, seedtime and harvest
Love conceives and gives birth to promise
Part of growing up is not avoiding pain
Facing the fires of love, not giving up is what remains

The look in Your eyes draws me in
I love You, I adore Your presence
I want to be with You, Holy Truth
I need to be found in You
My Protector, shielding me from what I do not know
Draw me to Your side to obey, to grow
Meeting me even in my dreams
Teaching me, holding me, helping me to patiently wait...

Let me know
how I may please You, my King.
