You stretched forth the starry host like
a curtain over the many skies,
The work of Your fingers
formed the watery depths.
The fruit of your works gave food to the lands
beneath Your feet. I watch as you tread on
the waves of the sea and its many sands. .
I find myself overwhelmed,
seeking rest and peace in barren places.
My soul longs for you like a thirsty
land longing for the rain.
Lend your words to my ears
so I can hear Your love song,
and rest to Your romantic tune.
Romance me lover of my soul!
Create in me a tune that would
never end to help dance an eternal
dance for you. I will make music for you,
I will sing a new song!
Your words framed my world,
so this will be a deeper romance!
Take captive my every thought
to the obedience of your Spirit.
By Your touch, it stirs a heartfelt
bliss within me to make me whole.
Mark me with destiny and
purpose me with your strength.
Search me and know my heart;
know my anxieties.
See that there is no wicked way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.
