The Song of My Lord

I often think in rhymes

I pray that is a sign

Of an inner holy peace

That yearns for sweet release

With these soul-felt harmonies

My Lord I hope to please

My heart in one accord

With the music of my Lord


I will sing to Him this song

As He sings over me

I will sing my whole life long

Until His face I see.


The rhythms and the rhymes

The signatures and times

I hope as when I sing

Tis a fragrant offering

But even when the words

Lie deep within, unheard

The Spirit hears my groans

And parses the unknown


I will sing to Him my song

As He sings over me

I will sing my whole life long

Until His face I see.

I will sing to Him this song

As He sings over me

I will sing my whole life long

Until His face I see.
