A continual Work of Wonder

 Your words were found and I ate them,
And Your words became for me a joy and the delight of my heart;
For I have been called by Your name,
O Lord God of hosts. 

(Jeremiah 15:16)

Lord, how dark the darkness was, and Oh how my feet stumbled

as I tried to walk in my own way.  But You offered Your hand, and I took it

and suddenly darkness was light, and my ankles were strengthened

My mind was renewed by listening to You constantly, and my Heart was healed

It is a Continual work of Wonder, this Transformation

a continual, awe-inspiring Work of Wonder.

Like the Mystery of a Child knit together in his mother’s womb

so my soul yields, my mind heals, my heart softens

at the Words of Your Mouth, Dear God.

There are no words to thank You enough for this great Salvation

There are not enough tears of Gratitude that I could cry

I sit here amazed at Your transforming Love, Your Overflowing Grace

I sit here humbled, truly humbled that You even see me

and Yet You have called me before the Foundation of the World, to be Your own

to be Yours alone, and so I am, because of You
