ZEPHANIAH

Many times
I am on your mind
Everlasting Father
My place to hide

Knitted and formed
While I was yet unborn
Being held together
By your strength

Cast upon you from my birth
Touch the earth arms outstretched
Longing to be held by you
My place to hide

You dressed me in your love
Your word healed me
Crying with hunger for what is right
Constant desire to seek and find

Truth is my only hope
To weather these storms
And be found comformed to your image
My place to hide

NOTE TO SELF

Pick up your armor
Hide yourself in God
Be helped

Be more than a good person
Live for more than work
Do not be afraid of getting hurt

Standfast
Listen more
Never take the easy road

Keep letting go of things
Hold onto no one
Cherish what is true

Examine yourself daily
Face the fire
Get ready... He's coming soon.

AS HE SEES

Our bodies ache to be clothed
In little more than this temporary
Growing weary trying not to faint
Confusing business of day to day
Longing to be held, to behold
The beauty of the Lord
To see Him come in the clouds
Break into this here and now
Collapsing the blur
Making ready the unsure
Justice stand up
Mercy has made a way
Love speaks the truth
We all need to pray
Lay down our lives
Be humble and exercise
The power we have been given
To heal and set free
To see all
As He sees
