Momentary Presence

In your presence I am but a sparkle in the sand a breath of Angel dust 
In your presence I am the sun's companion and the moon's best friend 
In your presence I seek only light and the path that leads me home 
In your momentary presence, ... I just am 

In your presence I am love and only love, both young and old  
In your presence I become the flower that thirsts for Holy Water 
In your presence I diminish and you appear I am never left alone 
In your momentary presence, ...I am there

In your presence all my worries turn to ashes as I pray 
In your presence I watch the gentle changing of the guards 
In your presence the ebon of the night turns into light 
In your presence I can truly see the path that leads me home 

In this momentary presence of respite, there is always you.
