Abide

As I sit here on the bed
And see the light cast streaks upon the ceiling
I am wondering, what is this feeling?
This feeling that I can’t be free
Waiting on You
For You to come through
Where I can’t seem
To get anything
To break or budge
Give up control
So simple and so hard
If I give up control there will be chaos
Not so
If I give up control I can finally let go
Relax
Be at peace
Trust God
Isn’t that what I preach?
Practice what you preach don’t just teach
Reach
Reach for You
My Savior & my God
Why do You have me here
God what do you want to show me
I’m so lonely
Oh so lonely in this cavern of mine
That I’ve created in my soul
Come out, be free, stop hiding inside
Why hide when you can abide?
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty (Ps. 91:1)
Secret place, shelter
Safe with You
Am I safe with You
Running to Your arms
Or am I off somewhere else
Running inside myself?
Myself or anything else I think satisfies
This longing inside
There’s no need to hide, cover over, or fear
He’s here
“I will say of the Lord,
“He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”” (Ps. 91:2)
Believe it
Mean it
Take it, own it, possess it
Nothing less than the best
Is what He has in store
I will say of the Lord
Yes I will say
“My refuge and my fortress
My light and my salvation
My God in whom I trust
My God on whom I rely”
Abide
Don’t hide
