I Am the One

In the depths of my heart I feel your presence When I laugh you hear my silent tears When I am still you hear my throbbing heart Who are you from whom I cannot hide? In my darkest hour you see me in light If I go to the caverns you are there If I hide beneath the deep you are there Who are you from whom I cannot hide? When I sing you detect tears in my voice When I dance you see my faltering steps When I dream you are there beside me Who are you from whom I cannot hide? When I pray you lend me your ears When I am mistreated you open a doorway to freedom When I am angry you chasten me Who are you from whom I cannot hide? Today you touched my heart Today I heard you whisper All things are possible with me I am the One from whom you cannot hide. * This poem is inspired by verses from Psalm 139.
