To write what You reveal, dear Sir
Ere long I quit this place
Your plain, Your deep, bright, words to share
As long I walk this space
In stories ripe with metaphor
In poems filled with grace
My joy will be in hearts to stir
Until I see Your face
To Meet Him There – An Act of Worship

TO MEET YOU THERE
Your creations, oh Lord,
Capture me
Convince me
Confirm You.
Immense mountains
Majesty and mystery
Massive earthrock moving skyward
Magnificence like mercy’s power, Your Prominence,
Your Eminence,
Away and up, I climb to meet You there.
Color – carved canyons
Complex, winding wide
Cut in solid stone, rim to rim
Connecting continuous flowing Truth exposed.
Down in, I climb, to meet You there.
Verdant valleys I find,
Filled full for every need
Verifying You – Your care for me.
Daily, hourly, each moment, I see
Your good, Your kind, Creativity.
Oh, God ! You make me to walk in wonder.
Wonder like a child
Wonder with which I can worship You
Wonder I never want to lose.
And as wonder unwraps faith, my Lord,
Faith shows me farther,
Deeper into unseen wonders
Where Your wondrous glory shines,
Then, through that thin place I climb,
To meet You there.
Alone in the Rockies.
