I wrote this as a outburst of my heart after singing the hymn Sovereign by Chris Tomlin this morning in church. I was overwhelmed with the sovereign tenderness of my Heavenly Father, and how much he takes joy in any little attempt I make to love him back.
In a tender moment
In the eye of my mind
I see a father weeping -
With tears, soft and mild -
In the fragile embrace
Of his loving child.
"Daddy, are you sad?
Did I do any wrong?"
"No, my child, I'm not.
There is no sadness here.
I cry because of love -
There is joy in these tears."
The the moment is done.
I wake and then I see
That You were the Father,
And the child was me.
