Running prayer time...

Like a house on sand all my plans fall down
When Your loving earthquake shakes me.
Soft as a whisper, violent as the hurricane,
But never enough to break me.

Like a house on sand all my plans fall down
Beneath the gale of the Divine,
But there is no fear - without a doubt
You have better plans in mind!

Lord the kingdoms of this world
Consist of nothing but air,
And the things that tempt my heart
Couldn't even begin to compare.
So I'm setting them aside in favor of
Grace and mercy found in Your great love.

You bless me with more than I know:
Your imagination and love stretch
Farther, wider, longer, deeper than mine!

You follow me to the darkest pit,
And welcome me to Your arms
After just one step back.
My God, I hunger and thirst after You.

So bless me with more than I can know!
Grant me love and righteousness
Farther, wider, longer, deeper than mine.

Shake the houses I build for myself.
For when I am left homeless,
I recall the extent of my Fortress.

Love me with Your tempest, Lord.
I trust Your torrential rains.
I'll fall in love to my very core,
And in You have the power to change.

Like a house on sand all my plans fall down
When Your loving earthquake shakes me.
Soft as a whisper, violent as the hurricane,
But never enough to break me.

poem, god
