God's Embrace

It's in the night,
when sleep will not come,
and God beckons for my voice
that I cry out.

He weeps for my pain,
clutches my hands,
draws me near
and holds me close.

Through the tears,
I try to find my focus;
what to say to Him,
what questions do I have.

It's rare to feel so close
to our amazing Creator,
and in those rare times,
I wish I could make time stand still.

It's no longer the "whys"
that I want answers too.
It's simply His comfort,
His arms embracing me.

The Lord's touch is healing,
reviving and enlightening.
I always leave that place of serenity
feeling whole, renewed and inspired.

To another day, with Him by my side.
With His hand in mine, anything is possible.
