Unknown


 In dreams I have spoken, came I unto you

In ways you would know me
Let my hand to your view

By waters and mountains have I helped you to see
My wonder, my power
What would be, made through me

Though My ways, not your ways, My sight you may share
Turn not, fear not
Assured with My care


In winds and horizons, still waters am I known
Through mists and deep mornings
My hand would be shown

See with me beauty, light through a haze
I stretch forth my hand
As I lay forth your days

Though My ways, not your ways, My sight you may share
Turn not, fear not
Assured by My care


 Mine arm is not slackened, nor taken away

Covenant, I made with you
That promise shall stay

By Me, dear one steady, I trust you to be
Let lift from thy shoulders
Your burdens I’ll ease

Though My ways, not your ways, My sight you may share
Turn not, fear not
Assured of My care


 Your tears do I catch in the palm of My hand

As I hold you and comfort
And help you to stand

For I have descended, through Me do all raise
Like sun before morning
Like mists before skies

Though My ways, not your ways, My sight you may share
Turn not, fear not
 Assured in My care




'Cross fields swept with evening, a glow do I spread
My peace I leave with you
A peace to thy head

Though unknown, uncertain, to you may it seem
Your life to Me known,
Your glory, My dream

  2. And as you well know, sentimental to Gpa, me, and of course...you:
    "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways, saith the Lord. For as
    the heavens are higher than the earth, so are
    my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts
    your thoughts.". Isaiah 55: 8-9
    Beautiful application of this truth.
    Love you, my faithful daughter of depth.
    Mama
