Evensong

O Your unshakable rock

Is my safe place to hide

Where my heart is fastened

Protected from the endless tide

Though waters churn and walls may break

You shelter my soul from every wave

Your love holds my spirit still

Though I am laid bare: broken, depraved

Gentler showers wash over me

Your sweet, soft, unfaltering grace

Seeps down to the sinews of my heart

And quiescence expels all haste

My light, my longing, my heart’s first love

You are, and I am Yours

Faith is all that I can give

And my trust is all Your heart adores

So I will place my hope in grace

Finding peace within Your love alone

Humbly I bring my whole, my heart

To You, my foundation’s Cornerstone






I was reading Ephesians 3:8-21. I won't post the whole passage here, but I love it. Read it. Dwell on it. Drink it in.

I am in awe of the unconditional grace of God.
