Breathless Moment

Just one of those moments

I seldom know when

And you have my next breath

You draw me again

To thoughts of your goodness

To reckon my debt

To see you give gladly

My sure Shepherd yet.

And all of the day’s stress

And all still unsure

Erased by your presence

Arresting and pure.

Just how can you do this

With saints the world round

And make it so special

To each heart faith found?

But you are the Lord God

And once lived like us

Enduring the worst test

Your Cross bought our trust.

I’m rich in your presence

Released from each pain

Awaiting the moment

You visit again.
