Wanderings and Wonder

Can you see the color in the night
or the glow of hope in darkest plight
is there a way to know peace
in the midst angry seas

My soul longs to be held
in arms of love my worries melt
how am I to be home
when from the path I roam

Did You really win the fight
and for all mankind didst shine Your Light
what if I still feel lost
even though You've paid the cost

What is it that hides me from Your grace
am I afraid to see Your face
disappointment too hard to bear
Your anger is only fair

But a gentle nudge says otherwise
its only shame that You despise
fig leaves are no shield
if judgment's what You came to wield

Have You always felt this way
even from sins first day
did doubting cloud my view
of Your mercies ever new

Did it really take the Cross
to show us all what had been lost
the depth of love that knows no bounds
and grace extended 'till it's found

Is that Your whisper in the wind
like gravity You pull me close again
why do I still try to stand
when its You who hold me in Your hand
