Only Your Presence

Broken, lost, and tired from weathering the continuous raging storm
Barely able to stand on my own any longer. 
You give peace to the worried and strength to the weak. 
Only in your presence do I find peace
With closed eyes and an open heart, waiting to feel your instant presence. 
You sign your name in place of mine, paying all my debts
I'm not worthy to stand where you stand, my God, my Savior.
