God can see you – v2

A child on a burning roof

at night, in fear, trembling

crying out for safety

for their parents’ comfort.

The parent crying out,

“Jump! I will catch you.”

The child cannot see;

but the parent says, “I can see you.”

So we are with God,

failing to believe, to see

knowing what we are to do

to take our leap of faith;

But God can see you

trembling, in the darkness,

wanting to hold you tight

to wipe away your tears.

Oh, that we would have faith enough

sufficient to jump into the darkness

to trust that our Father

will be there to catch us,

to lift us, high above our present

to a bright and clear future;

To boldly go in faith

following our Master.
