God stood still and took a breath
And saw what He hath made
He saw cascading rivers
Crescending River falls!
But hushed were they
When God’s own hand
He raised, to calm them all
Be still!
God stopped to take in Chorus sweet,
He listened to the stillness sound.
Hushed, Obedient, Love, Respect
When raised, His majestic hand!
The trees of leaves, obey His will,
The Sands of Time, were showed
When all around, the news spread fast –
Each head, in reverence, bowed!
God gave His Only Begotten son
His love for us, His children all
Compared to all, found none
He gave of His divinity!
He breathed in silent love,
God breathed, love outwardly
Gave His heart, in knowledge
That Christ received!
For now as God breathes in
And stops, a second take,
To help us all, the witness of
His Love, His Power, His Grace!
Christ gave to all, Free Agency
To choose the straightened path,
And as we do,
God breathes His breath
In Open Arms, we go!
