works of words

Deep abiding waters still with wisdom’s age

Silent.

Deep abiding waters, of my heart of my soul

Deep abiding waters still before me lay

Silent.

I stared into your waters and I cried, I cried.

I stared into your waters and I cried and drank.

I know, my sorrow and my pain carved out the cistern

Until you came.

You filled me with yourself so I became,

Deep abiding waters that others might drink.

Deep abiding waters at last I know you by name

Yeshua!
