Solitude

This ridge I walk
Seeking it’s majesty to stand atop
My Creator smiling as I indulge in what he hand crafted and created
Like a father smiling as his child opens the gift he gave him
The gifts he wishes to give to me
Everything I have in this life is a gift and it’s free
I'm not measured by what I do and what I can achieve
How could this not be something I realized in my heart
Long ago from the beginning from the start
I couldn’t do a thing to deserve what he has in store for me
So all I can do is be still and wait on you
You are the silence in the noise
And in the silence you are the voice
To carry me home to the kingdom of heaven
The state of my heart not a place we go to in the end
I reach back as you extend your hand
Lord you are my compass my guide my friend.
You made me ferocious protective and wild
You humble me like a child
You give me what I need and what it takes
The stakes are high and I accept your invitation
And now we move forward together
