A jet stream that swirls and leaves
I'll surf on the crest as long as I breathe
Please Holy Spirit lead
It's Your gift
Moving my lungs and pumping each beat
Of my life...
The same one who raised life from death
Opens my nostrils at the start of each new day
You pull back that starry curtain to showcase Your loving embrace
And time never changes to You
Outside of our sunsets and new moons you stand
Always unchanging, forever unwavering, never relenting
In pursuit of my heart
Eternal reminders wrapped up in your fringes
The shadow of those wings is where I find rest
These days beat on by, like the blink of my eye
Rhythm and speed want to overtake me
Yet I look to the blue and remember what's true
The devoted One who is Father and Son
The Spirit I breathe, yes He understands
My Author, Sustainer, Ally, and Father
I bless You Lord heart, life, my strength
And time never changes to You
Outside of our sunsets and new moons you stand
Always unchanging, forever unwavering, never relenting
In pursuit of my heart
My lips utter honor, my face transfixed
Without You nothing was made
Your hand hovered before time started to crawl
In that moment
You already knew me
You already loved me
This extravagant love is outside my box
A brilliant rendering Oh Great Architect
Who reached down into time to give life to my simple soul
This immense love, this intentional care, this greatest desire and love
I'm enamored by You
I'm drawn to Your kindness
I'm falling in love all over again
And time never changes to You
Outside of our sunsets and new moons you stand
Always unchanging, forever unwavering, never relenting
In pursuit of my heart
So is time really there? Is it one layered unfolding picture?
Your devotion and passion have always been there, after me
In the blink of Your eye all of time came and went
Our days are like flowers gleaming under your love
So Lord please honor this simple prayer
Teach me to number my days
Let me present to you a heart of wisdom
And time never changes to You
Outside of our sunsets and new moons you stand
Always unchanging, forever unwavering, never relenting
In pursuit of my heart
