Lord Only With Thee

Crystalline flakes gently caress my cheeks
 Clear brisk air fills my being with new life
 Brittle ice shatters, breaks beneath my feet
 Silence, solitude, no worries or strife

 I walk, I breathe, I think, I am alive
 to dream, to wonder, to stand and turn anew
 to God, who blazes and guides my holy strive
 to follow, to abide, to walk like few.

 Worship so intimate, each step brings me,
 like the dawn of morn, closer to Your light,
 brilliant source of truth, of hope, of peace
 I am alive to give You praise tonight.

 At the end of my days, there I will be,
 in this place always, Lord, only with thee.
