In the quiet psalm,
	As light falls gentle, calm
Breaking through the softest of skies,
	Inviting hearts to the kindest sunrise –
where once, the One who made the day,
	reveals the love that found a way,
the precious love for which hearts pray – 
the beautiful that I will forever say…

in the silence of the psalm,
	rises the wonder, in His palm
grows a warmth, a sincerity, a sweet grace,
falling across this heart who sees love’s face,
in the melody, in the song –
	still alive and where I belong,
		it’s His Presence, so very strong,
promising my soul that He’ll right every wrong,
restoring my heart – all my life long…

in the quiet of God’s psalm,
	there is a joy that can becalm
filling the spirit with a blessing, a light
who feeds the silence of the darkest night,
who abides in the promise, making hearts right –
	freeing the sinner, stirring a fire
inside the believer, so their greatest desire
is knowing God, the soul’s only supplier….

Of the love that comes to life
	when we think of that sacrifice,
the One who changed the heart of us all,
with His mercy, His conviction, His call
the reason we know Him, the peace that reveals
what it means to love as our heart kneels,
what it means to give Him our lives –
assured He is the One who forgives…

the Maker, the Creator, the ONE
who came to earth, God’s Only Son….
And, He’ll one day say “well done”!!!!

This brought tears to my eyes Regina, it is beautiful. I so long to hear those words one day "Well done my good and faithful servant, enter ye into thy rest". He is so wonderful, our precious mighty loving Savior! Hugs Regina, well done! <3
