Oh my Father, my Ever-Watching,
Constantly-Attentive Father,
How do I praise You enough?
How can my finite mind give blessing to the Infinite?
You have made me like a tree planted
by streams of water whose leaf will not wither.
YOU HAVE REFRESHED MY SOUL.
I handed you my every fear,
one by one, name by name.
You gave me peace.
My trembling voice called to You.
You answered me with steady assurance,
“I AM HERE.”
With tear-stained cheeks,
I confessed my anxious thoughts.
You leaned in close
and whispered to my heart,
“Child, give your anxiety to me.”
YOU HAVE CARED FOR ME.
My wounded spirit did not hide from You,
In the Name of Grace, You stooped from the Heavenlies,
and breathed new life to my soul.
You strengthened me.
You calmed my spirit.
You spurred me forward
and made me strong.
My heart is secure in the shadow of Your wing.
YOU HEALED ME.
