Always a Child

It's morning, Jesus.

I have seen your glory this morning.
Even though the sun has not yet risen
The darkness outside has not hidden you.

I have inwardly sung to you this morning.
Even though my wife and children are asleep and I keep quiet
The silence has not muffled my song to you.

I have turned the corner of prayer this morning.
Even though I found it difficult to pray
Your desire that I pray to you was greater than my desire to pray.

I finally made it through and climbed onto your lap

like the child I am


Today I will measure all things by your Word.
I will find the sharp sword that says "It is written"
And with it take up the power of no and the hallelujah of yes.

Amen.
