Trust

All the things of the past,
Lead me back to this one place.
You walking towards me on the sea.
I hear you calling out my name,
I yearn to be with you walking on those waves.
I take a step and there I stand,
Gazing at your mighty hand.
Beckoning me to come to you,
For that is what I want to do.
A few more steps and now I see
You loving eyes staring right at me.
Yet my eyes lose focus and I begin to tremble,
For now I see all those waves rushing right at me
I start to sink and I cry for help
And at once you are there to rescue me.
You take me back to the shore,
And comfort me with your warm embrace.

The journey I have taken thus far,
Has led me to these shores so many times.
And each time I get closer to where you walk,
But then my trust begins to crumble and I start to sink.
Yet I know that one day I’ll make it to you,
But it is something only you can help me do.
For I alone do not have the strength to make it,
But your spirit at work within will help me to reach you.
When that day comes, I know I will rejoice,
For it is then that I will be able to give myself fully to you.
