I saw the motion picture displayed before me
The Great Nothing moving across our world
Until Nothing was left save two single souls
And a grain of sand…

Are we not there spiritually Lord?
Am I not a part of the falling away?
Being swept away along with
Life’s tides of nothingness

The daily grind of life encourages
And presses us to conform
Into uninspired people with
No time to even consider Your pleadings

I confess that my choices are no better than others
But still, I can hear You call my name
In every waking hour and in the dark of night
And my heart cries out to respond to You

And yet, I have condemnation from others
That my quest for You is too extreme
I don’t understand that, why?
Why don’t they know that You are calling?

Just waiting for one to kneel before you
And linger for your love
A love that covers all things
And wipes away every fault

No one on earth can love me like You do
No one can tug at my heart
To mold and make me worthy
To bring together that of what I am and what I live – together

The breathless wonder of Your Voice in the night
Sustains hope that You know I am here
Waiting for the morning sunrise when
All will be right between You and me

With head bowed, weak and discouraged
I know I cannot give up hope
For somewhere You will save me and give me strength
O my God

For not to believe this – is so devastating
That I could not bear to live another day
Without You – Your precious life force
That keeps me going each and every day

I have set my face towards the eastern sky
With tears freely falling on my cheeks
And I anticipate the day when
I can return Your love back to You

To be an integral part of the Neverending Story…
