Presence

I know you're with me, Lord
Your Word assures me of Your presence.
My heart yearns for time and space
To find the deep connection with You
That my heart desires above all else.
Why, then, do less important things
Clutter my life and crowd out Your peace?
Why is my day consumed by the mundane
Instead of recognizing the miracles all around?
Capture my heart and my imagination, Lord,
With the wondrous plan You have for me
Crafted before my birth to give glory to Your name.
Open the floodgate of my life
To be significant for You
An oasis for others in our parched world.
