His Voice

Your voice, O God, is right and true,

gracious and pure.

Your voice, O Lord, is beautiful and majestic,

awesome and mighty!

Yeshua, your way is enlightening.

Yeshua, your love is mystifying.

My God, my Savior, I praise you.

Your Spirit reveals the way,

it is full of light.

You show me now the Truth,

and Life.

Your voice, your voice, is like thunder.

Make it louder!

Make it louder!

But who will listen?

Who is wise?

Fools claim wisdom in their own eyes.

But you, Yahweh, are perfect.

And in your grace have given me wisdom-

which begins with fearing your name.

Yahweh.

Your voice is like lightning,

shaking the earth and piercing the hearts of men.

Who can stand?

Your voice beckons,

calms the storm,

comes in a whisper.

Who will listen?

Your Word will stand the test of time.

Yes, Lord, for time is nothing to you.

Your voice is sweet and gentle.

You are humble, Christ.

You are fierce, my King.

Speak, Holy Spirit, speak.

We need your Word.

And this is what He said:

I see you. I know you. I hear you.

Even if I run and hide?

Even if I turn out all the lights?

Even if I think I am alone?

Even when I do the things I do,

say the things I say?

I see you. I know you. I hear you.

What if I packed it all away?

Burned every bridge?

Spit in your face?

What if I break the law?

I curse the day I was born 

and ruin it all?

I see you. I know you. I hear you.

Yes, my God.

Yes, my Author and Finisher.

Yes, my Sustainer and Judge.

My Everything of Worth.

Father.

You saw me when I broke that ceramic.

You saw me when I stole that sucker.

You saw me write that curse word on the door.

You saw me degrade my body with strangers.

I love you. 

You knew me before I was born.

You knew I would not have a father.

You knew I would be neglected, harassed, mistreated.

You knew I would call upon your name on July 2, 2005.

I love you.

You heard me tell that lie.

You heard me say heaven would be boring.

You heard my swearing.

You heard me cry.

I love you.

Maker,

you are profound and intelligent.

Healer,

you are glorious and right.

Abba,

thank you for the Light.
