For Such Little Things – v4

The concern of God
for such little things
His infinite mercy
caring for the lives of mortal man
when compared to all of creation;
it is amazing that God cares about us

We are but a breath, a whisper,
our lives are a fleeting shadow;
our understanding is so weak
when compared with
the infinite wisdom of God

Yet God is our rock, God is our refuge
and our fortress, with us
in times of trials, in struggles,
our Savior from all enemies;
God is faithful when we to cry out
even redeeming us from ourselves

For Such Little Things – v2

The concern of God
for such little things
the lives of mortal man
when compared to all of creation
amazing that He cares
that God notices us

We are but a breath, a whisper
a flame to be blown out
our lives a fleeting shadow
our understanding so weak
when compared with
the infinite wisdom of God

Yet God is our rock
and our refuge, our strength
our Savior from all enemies
faithful when we to cry out
even redeeming us from ourselves
God Spirit abiding within

My Plea, with David

How I thirst for you oh Lord
in the quiet of the night
through the din of the day
in the chambers of my heart

I call to you in whispers
in shouts, in desperate cries
come near to me oh Lord
and answer my plea

Show me what I must do
how my family will be sustained
teach me your will today
for my path in this life

Save me Lord, I pray
for I feel the breath of my enemies
they are close by me
I need you by my side
