Take me to the place
Where Your Presence be
One within the sacred
Where the soul can see
Shining holy light
Truth is on display
Waves of comfort flowing
Letting go to pray
Vision of eternal
Now, a speck of dust
Rock of firm foundation
Where soul can place its trust
Tend this broken soul
Carry me away
Mold it to Your image
Return it to Your way
In a valley dark
Spirit feeling down
Burdens of the heavy
Loneliness surrounds
Through a spark inspired
Message that You sent
Shines the blessed light
Word of encouragement
Eyes to heaven lift
Spark ignites the flame
Returning to the One
That my soul proclaims
Spoken from the heart
Grateful this soul be
That my brother dear
Let me back to thee
Tired and broken
Hope beaten down
Body exhausted
Head starts to pound
Now enter the quiet
In Your arms to rest
Oh healing Presence
This soul here now bless
Found in the silence
Compassion and care
Stilling acceptance
Accusations not here
Found in love wrapping
Deep soothing within
Restoring the soul
Let healing begin
No words are needed
Just bathe in the light
Sacred restoring
With Savior unite
In this moment be
A time that’s set aside
Surrendering my will
Let soul and You reside
One of simple being
No prayer of the forcing
Open window flow
This world of divorcing
Simple petition made
Asking word of grace
Letting go of me
And fall in Your embrace
Take me where You will
Unspoken love received
Soul of healing be
Trust in You believed
A simple desperate soul
Offers up a prayer
Sent unto His Lord
Receives no answer clear
What is he to do?
Should he be dismayed?
Give up all his hope
Or faith now lead the way
What is this way of faith?
Not letting heart go sour
Conforming will to Gods
Not Gods will to ours
Little steps of trust
Seeking of roots deep
Reflecting of the growth
Faith begins to seep
Encounter with Jesus
An encounter of change
One of conversion
Our soul rearrange
Way of the deeper
One of surprise
View of above
Thoughts analyze
Found in His presence
Discovered in Word
Showered in mercy
Through Spirit be heard
Surrounded in love
Surrender our way
Joy in awareness
Beside Him to stay
In the dawning light I see
The Spirit drawing calling me
The speaks throughout eternity
The precious love of God
Rest my soul in solitude
And bind with Spirit be
Acceptance of the love of God
To find my hope in thee
Surrender now my will to thee
And dwell within your love
Gratitude of mercy great
To turn my way above
Soul’s connection to our Lord
Spark Your grace divine
Bringing heaven to this heaven
Your light through servant shine
