WHEN I LEAN MY HEART

When I lean my heart I find myself at Your feet
awestruck by Your majesty and holiness

A wealth of knowledge and wisdom ~ the very mystery of You ~
reserved only for those You have redeemed,
there for the taking to be held onto and treasured forever

Humbled and down on my knees
I enter into glorious praise and worship of my God, El Shaddai,
Who alone is worthy of such adoration

When in Your presence I feel invincible, as well I should,
for all the power which is Yours now is mine
to bring back into the life You have so graciously given me
day by precious day

How well will I steward what You have entrusted to me?

My heart's desire is to hear from You on that judgment day,
"Well done my good and faithful servant, go now and enter into your rest".

My trust I place in You welcoming Your gentle voice of reason and guidance and in obedience I remain with You, by Your grace never against You.

Until that final hour I will continue to lean my heart toward Yours
for there is no better dwelling place than this.
