Deeper into the Son
Silent sway, my mind must stay
Aloft on Your great Fountain
Awakened deep within my soul
I climb, but a wispy mountain
A Word, a Thought
You count them not
As if accumulation completes
What Your spoken Word repeats
A gate wide open
A Holy Human Token
Aloud an “Abba Father”
What credit to me?
None can I see
A redirected periphial skew
A sight given beyond my view
Hold me there! In the sight of You!
Son of every beholding!
Drops of blood, clearly mark
The way to which, this heart must go
Walking, walking – no surface impeding
Water flows, from His eyes, His side, to cushion His feet
Tears clean what fresh water doesn’t dare
Each rung, You hang, and hold me fair
No looking down! A mighty fall
Back to my own perceiving
Afloat on You, and the very air You’re breathing
Circumsized eyes can see where You are leading
Embraced in a language reserved
For a people called and preserved
Bread is blessed and broken
And fed to a multitude of sins
Love is the leaven of heaven
It rises the road to its offering
Capsizing the enemies subtle lie
“Did He really say you will die?”
Love whispered back threw the holes in His hands
“Life is here!”
Deeper into the Son I dive
Following, following I feel for those holes
Doubt is not the power, held within Your presence, only confirmation
Real, more real than even the surface I ken to hold me up
Deeper into the Son
Deeper into Your temple
Better is one day buried in You
Than a million cast aside from my Home
All rising again and again!
“Love Me, Follow”…His voice is not hollow
Full, over-flowing, full of living rebirth!
Harken me onward
Mighty Carpenter, continue to build
This narrow path stretching
From me to You
Deeper into the Son!
Engraved with Obedience
Carved and shaped by Trust
Molded and made for Worship
Oh!! What He makes of dust!
Deeper into the Son
I go, I run, I hide, I seek
Yet He is
He is!
The Way, the Truth, the Life
He calls and His own – Come!
Deeper, deeper into the Son!
