Winter’s Quiet Approach

winter is coming.  night comes early.  cold and rainy days, and if we’re lucky…snow will fall as well.  Tonight I find my heart heavy, though I can’t exactly find the words I need.  breathe. 

“Oh Lord, to be saved from myself, dear Lord
oh to be lost in Thee
Oh, that it might be no more I
but Christ that lives in me.” 
~AB Simpson

Father,
Please show your face tonight
Please meet me in this place
My heart is tired and my mind is lonely
and the darkness has grown old.
Lord, please show your face tonight
and place in me a new song
After so long, this one seems wrong
The same notes echo over
and over
A lifetime of longing
singing the same ol’ song
and I can’t help but think
It’s time for a brand new song.
Won’t you place in me a brand new song?

~AMEN~
