I Am Here

.

Present at this moment. Present to this moment.
To remove all falsehoods and pretense
All empty hopes and temporal ambitions
All expectations heaped upon myself
And marred the image that You have made of me


Present at this moment. Present to this moment.
Slow my soul down and incline my heart to Your voice
How my soul aches and longs even for the slightest whisper
For even the softest of whisper carry the intents of Your will


Present at this moment. Present to this moment.
Shut my eyes to the worthless things and let me gaze forlorn
At things eternal, at things that matter
Awaken this sleeping sleeplessness within me


Present at this moment. Present to this moment.
Standing with You on the waters’ edge
Bid me to come to you, wind and waves submitted.
Only to You, present in this moment, at this moment, present.
