Serenade

Sing to me a new song;
Serenade me with this love
That pours from Your heart-
Cascading from Your lips.
My soul delights in Your ways
And my hands grasp for
Yours to hold-
Like a fallen child...
With a bloody knee.

Take me in Your gentle arms,
And hum to me a lullaby
Of love and peace.
Tell me of that wedding
That looms in my near-distant future,
And describe to me how
Glorious I look all set in white-
Beautiful.

Wipe my eyes as I cry to You
Of all the things I wish I could be
But never see growing inside myself.
Whisper to me, My Father,
That everything I am Is...
"All I have created for you to be
Today- But tomorrow is a new adventure
Ready to take place."
Then... let us run together, Lord.
