When I close my eyes
In our quiet conversation
I send you praise
I thank you exceedingly
For both joy and pain
You are my miracle
My depth and width
I can not move forward
Without you my strength
You surround me with love
No matter my fault
You surrender angels
As they filter my thoughts
How can I not
Acknowledge you
You are my guide
My measure
My calm
As I bend my knees
In honor of you
My prayer is released
In words I could not form
Without help from above
I still myself
As I remember you
Memories of warmth shelter and supply
Memories that bring tears to my eyes
As I humble myself
And prepare to release
A thanksgiving heart
A heart at peace
I surrender these words
As if they are my own
Holy Spirit give me pause
To thank you my Savior, My Beautiful God.
