When you look ahead O man, what do you see? What do you do? Do you want me to tell you the way I see it, when I look at you? You see one vulnerable, who’s days are numbered, insecure But I see your every hair numbered by Me, your days are sure You see a man who’s arm is short, unable to feel the way ahead Unable to see what lies before, your future you begin to dread But I see a man In My own hand and My hand goes where it would A man created by Me and My plan for you is good When you are in My hand but facing in the other direction Looking ahead to plot you way into your own perfection You have only to turn around and then you will see You are in My hand, holding you up in front of Me But you forget Me and trust in plans as you weave them like a web You feel safe in them like in a cocoon, as you look out ahead Web like plans are thin and weak, turn around and look at Me I can destroy them with one blow, and bring you back to reality You fear man and don’t fear Me, when you plot what to do or say Stop this futile foolishness, turn now and look only upon My face See My eyes of love are on you always, as I hold you in My hand Your greatest fears will never appear if you will embrace My plan I know you! You are not alone. You have only to look on Me See Me in your every situation, I alone can be your peace Sit upon My lap up on My throne, come and take your place Stop trusting your foolish plots and trust My amazing grace
