Abiding

When I see through Your eyes

All the confusion and chaos of the world

Seem to fall into perfect order

For when I see through Your eyes-

I see.

 

When I think Your thoughts, Lord,

The wisdom of the universe lies at my disposal

Great peace and the patience of eternity

For when I think Your thoughts, Lord-

I know.

 

And when I feel through Your heart

Bitterness and judgement melt away

Into the warmth of mercy freely given

For when I feel through Your heart-

I love.

 

Oh joy and peace so long sought after

Were all the while in Thee-

Yet have I been so long imprisoned

I know not I am free?

 

Now I must live through You, Lord,

For only when I do

am I alive.
