I Walked On the Beach Today
"I walked on the beach today,
Along tides edge I made my way
Towards the lighthouse on the point,
It’s beacon of light which anoints
Ships at sea it must protect,
From a catastrophic shipwreck
So to it beckons me,
To come see it’s view of the sea
And to feel the power,
Each wave delivers on its tower
This is my church today,
As I am moved to pray
That this beacon will guide me,
Towards the goodness God wants me to see
Commanding strength from every wave,
With fortitude to be brave
To face the challenge of life,
And find happiness in what is right
This is God’s present to us,
And through prayer, we open it up
To receive the grace of his love,
And surrender our hearts to him above"
