The Depth of Your Love1

A poem of surrender, It's words carry much more than they appear.

I'll cross any ocean for You

I'd walk the depths of hell

For I know the promises you've given me

It took so long to tell

 

The message of Your love came through

And finally reached to me

And now I see my home with You

That for so long I wouldn't see

 

For the promise of Your love

To bring me back to You

For the promise of Your love

to bring me to walk with You

Be my guide and be my strength

May my heart remain true

 

My life the wall that broke me

to lead me into Your will

Your song I sing within me

For my heart You'll always fill

 

You've always been there for me

when I would let You be

And even when I thought You weren't

You were carrying me.

 

The love burning within now

From my beginning to my end

I'm learning to share Your love now

On You my life depends

 

For the promise of Your love

To bring me back to You

For the promise of Your love

to bring me to walk with You

Be my guide and be my strength

May my heart remain true

I wrote this song a couple weeks ago ( that was nov, 2007. while I was driving home without my children. this song seemed to be a pinnacle turning point between chosing the path of self destruction versus the path of self construction, and I learn, and I grow, and I love. Don

 

Author's Note

It's words carry much more than they appear. This was my act of surrender.
