God, only God

boundless as the wind

wide as heaven’s sky,

You, only You

can make us filled within

can be our what, our why.

–

We long for peace

and grasp at wrath and war,

seizing all You “no’s”.

We long for love,

rest from sad and sore,

joy and full release.

–

Grace fully good

gentle as the snow

hard as frozen earth.

Break fully kind

our ice of outward show

and free our springs of mirth.
