On the Wings of a Prayer
I sit inside myself with my memories to mend
Looking toward the Heavens my thoughts slowly ascend
Reflections within the brilliance of the newly morning mists
Liberates the essence enduring solely through that which resists
A soft breeze caresses tenderly across my face
Light shining upon me resting in amazing grace
Surrounded in vast warmth exceedingly diving and bright
On the wings of a prayer my solitude peacefully takes flight
Embracing the solace my spirit faithfully sojourns with Him near my side
Leading me gently by still waters nurturing guidance He's to provide
Calming silence dwelling with in the lucidity of His care
Burdens and worries surrendered no longer to have to bare
Offering shelter with compassionate arms opened wide
Residing in the comfort of the salvation His love will abide
Then He poured out His blessings and to every season what was old became a new
Enkindling life into this newborn heart has made it steadfast and true
So I rejoice in this day with gladness for when I called out in my distress
He heard my cry and rescued me , The Lord is my rock; my fortress.
