As evening comes, Lord,
I look back on the day just past...
I wanted to live in your love today,
to show you my love for you
and to share your love
with all whose paths crossed mine...
But the love I have for you, Lord,
the love I live in word and deed,
the love I share with others,
is only a shadow, a faint shadow,
of the love you have for me
and for all you call your own...
Lest I get lost in my self, Lord,
shine the light of your love
in all the corners of my heart
and in the lives of all you name
your chosen, your beloved, your own...
The love I have for you, O Lord,
is only a shadow of your love for me,
your deep abiding love...
Protect me with your love, O Lord,
as I lie awake, as I fall asleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep, find peace and rest
in the love you have for me...
Amen.
Only A Shadow of Your Love by Carey Landry
The love, I have for
you, O Lord,
is
only a shadow of your love for me;
only
a shadow of your love for me,
your
deep, abiding love.
My
own belief in you, O Lord,
is
only a shadow of your faith in me;
only
a shadow of your faith in me,
your
deep and lasting faith.
My
life is in your hands,
my
life is in your hands.
My
love for you will grow, O Lord,
your light in me will
shine.
The
dreams we share today, O Lord,
are only a shadow of
your dreams for us,
only
a shadow of your dreams for us,
if we but follow you.
The
joy we share today, my Lord,
is
only a shadow of your joys for us
only
a shadow of your joys for us
when we meet face to
face.
Our
lives are in your hands,
our lives are in your
hands,
our love for you will
grow, O Lord
your light in us will
shine.
Our lives are in your
hands,
our lives are in your
hands,
our love for you will
grow, O Lord,
your light in us will
shine.
