facedown

PM 10/18/2008

When I am struck down
God Himself stands in my stead
I, in failure fall flat to my face
And my savior takes arms to stand in my place
Though bodily lost
the battle stands won
I on my face
Surround me, One Presence alone

Eternity - my face awaits
To magnify worship
I am lost forever
and nothing haunts the more
My face to floor
Eternally grateful,
-worship-
I fear nothing
In my failure He stands
When I am crushed He rises

He: all that is left
and I, only in Him
In Awesomeness, fury
Breathlessness - Encounter

I fear only my champion
And burn by His love

all around melts away
only left is His face
And He picks me up
He is armor to me now
In His Glory He rises
In His splendor, my King

Here Time stands still
This... is Eternity.
