The ONE
“And I give them eternal life, and they shall never lose it or perish throughout the ages. [To all eternity they shall never by any means be destroyed.] And no one is able to snatch them out of My hand.” - Max Lucado, Grace: More Than We Deserve, Greater Than We Imagine
One touch, gentle
Against my thoughts, my hand, my heart
A feathery whisper, graceful
And filled with compassion, so kind
One moment, stirred
By the spirit of grace, softest light
Pouring o’er the naked spirit,
Filling thoughts with beautiful, a smile
One song, harmonizing
With the rain, thunder and lightning,
Erasing the dusty roads, the lost
Leaves, falling – breathless as a sigh
One God, knowing
Wherever I go, faith will sustain
When I praise, I feel the amazing,
Spirit’s restoration, His love blessing…
Away the fears, the tears, the years
Before the ache, the fire
Burning away the silence of a moment
Before I knew Him as Father,
Before I knew Him as light,
Before I knew Him as the part of life
That would last, forever….
His grace filling, fulfilling, willing…
To take me home, to eternal paradise
Because of His altruism, His sacrifice
Saving, not just my life, but my heart, my soul…
He’s the wonderful ONE where I’ll spend eternity!
