Rooted and Grounded

As I meet my Maker

Laying against eternal arms
resting safe from worldly charms
here I meet my Maker
here I greet my Maker

Life’s concerns unyielding weight
worry, fear and passions rage
‘til I meet my Maker
‘til I greet my Maker

Learning as I live
thoughts in constant bend
as I meet my Maker
as I greet my Maker

Desert heat beat down outside
‘neath outspread wings I safely hide
as I meet my Maker
as I meet my Maker

Time is nothing to be grasped
an hour like an eon pass
as I meet my Maker
as I meet my Maker

Leaning close He whispers softly
word of wisdom that ease my longing
as I meet my Maker
as I meet my Maker

Today I’m thinking all His thoughts
love gushes from a well within
still the beggar whom He bought
His blood–it cleanses all my sin

The work is His–but rest is mine
leaning on His arms divine
here I meet my Maker
here I meet my Maker
