out in the not far distance
in the midst of the sun horizon
the seagulls flung across the sea line
out falls a purple haze
the mystic trees steepled high up in the sky
forest green leaves a fresh scent in the air
all of GOD's creations beauty held within the eye
the Holy Spirit sprinkles His cool breath and eases me
if only white sloped mountains peaked out
over those nest trees there the early birds
who sing praises unto our living GOD
giving thanks of only a glimpse of what looks ahead
its a wonder to me and the people
surrounded around spender here in the valley
my eyes see a life of joy of an endless path
that's His promise with a rainbow of colors
and blood inside of me of Christ Jesus
He's paid the price in full for us
to purchase me there running through me endlessly
i'm meek to carry His cross
and the scars pierced in my soul
and like Him i'll despise the shame
i'll wear His name across my head
i'll walk the pain of temptations
with Him i'll chisel my way through
His perfect life gives me direction & guidance
where all people are welcomed in His grace
