“I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.” — Jimmy Dean
One goal that haunts my life,
Fading beneath the shadow’s flow
With hope based on God’s sacrifice,
Blessing away the twilight’s glow.
One goal that breathes softly in the sun,
Soaring quietly beneath stars and moon
Stirring hearts to believe in the One,
Who arose to play the gentlest tune.
One goal that reminds me where love sings,
Lives the music of wonder that fulfills
Promising believers a glimpse of the king of kings,
The One whose purpose surely stills.
One goal that colors my life in a sweetness,
Graceful as prayers and praising evermore
Warms my spirit with precious completeness,
Restores my life with a love that I adore.
One goal that tells me I am the child of grace,
Remembering this love that is God’s way
Glistening in the skies, shining on each face,
A glimpse of God’s wonder, as I kneel to pray.
One goal that has always nurtured my devotion,
To the One who brings His joy and peace
The reason that I believe and it is more than emotion,
Moving me to just believe – this love will never cease…
And, because I believe – His love is alive within,
Where I know, my only goal, is to light the hearts
With the love given when I was forgiven of my sin,
And, the surety of a light whose hope never departs.
My only goal – deep inside my soul
Is to give back a piece of this blessing,
More than love, it makes me whole
It is Jesus, my Savior, whom I’ll keep professing!
