Out of the silence

Over the void His Spirit moved,
To the emptiness He spoke -
Where once was darkness,
There pierced through light.
Where once was death,
Came forth life...

He spoke,
He drew,
He loved,
He knew,
He breathed me
To life.

Out of the silence
I must respond.
Deep calls to deep,
My voice must echo what it has heard,
I long to reflect what I have seen.

Oh Jesus Christ, Creator of all, I look to You and hold to You alone for all of life. These feeble words come from one who is weak, and are buried amongst the billions of other words continually churned out by the sea of humanity. But here I stand, oh God, and hear I speak. All of life is about You. Oh how I long for all my life to be centered around You! I delight in You, for You are more valuable than all else. You have created me to find my life in You, and in You will I find my life. Have mercy on me, have grace upon me, and fill me with Your Living Waters.
