My eyes are open to the thick of you
But the lining is thin,
Placing my hands at the hardest places…
Feeling only life’s simple demands:
It is patient
It is kind
It is holy
It is never blind.
It does not boast
It does not envy
It does not malice
It is never heavy.

So I open my heart to the depth of you
Though the waters shallow
Placing my feet at the height of you…
Planting on the firmest of foundations, I know:
It is patient
It is kind
It is holy
It never lags behind.
It does not boast
It does not envy
It does not malice
It is always with me.
