Lord,
it's taken too many decades
til I've welcomed your grace
astir in my heart,
restless in my soul,
patiently waiting
to move me to joy
in the midst of my troubles,
to lead me to peace
when my burdens are many,
to know your healing
while my heart's still aching,
to rest content
in my discontent,
to trust in your presence
when I cannot find you...
Too many decades, Lord,
to come to this time and finally find
peace greater than I've ever known,
joy deeper that I'd ever imagined,
love stronger than I ought deserve...
Too many decades
but now, in your time
which is right on time,
now, not too late
(only why not before?)
now, in this moment
(may it never end!)
now, in your grace
this gift freely given,
now, in your arms
so strong and embracing,
now, yes right now
and as never before,
now, hear my praise, Lord,
my heart's grateful song,..
now in this moment,
the day you have made...
Amen.
