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.
