The words of the scripture,
the tip of the iceberg, a
foretaste
for it is in You that I have
my treasure
Your love, your endless,
steadfast love
a communion with You, oh God,
my rock, my redeemer, my Lord
Without your presence in my
life,
I was adrift, on the seas of
the world,
In You, a voice rising, to
share Your message
to reach the ends of the
earth
Your love, Your grace, my
joy
on my lips, shared for all
to see
Hope in the sacrifice of our
Savior,
the endless love of the Father
the living presence of Your
Spirit
willing to give so much, to
share
to bring us home, to You
to forgive our sin through
grace alone
Daily You affirm that gift
Your grace all around,
unending,
in creation, in our witness,
seeing,
if we but open our eyes,
all of this, this creation,
this earth
this door opened for us,
this hope of salvation
by Your steadfast love, Your
endless grace
by Your hand alone
