Walking in Love

Father, I choose to walk today,  

to live within the breadth of love,  

a gift too vast to comprehend,  

a grace too high to stand alone.  

I tried with trembling human strength,  

but my steps faltered, slipped, undone;  

your promise steadies the frail resolve,  

your word, a song beyond the dust.  

Through Christ, your son, power flows,  

not mine, but his; I rise renewed.  

The world pulls hard with fleeting charms,  

but your love roots where storms collide.  

Teach me this path, the endless stream,  

where mercy dwells in steadfast forms;  

I walk, not broken, but held aloft,  

your hands the sky beneath my feet.
