Yearning

From within the mystery begins,
a yearning in my soul.
a soul that's set in motion,
finding its way home,
spurred onward very seeking
that which is dearly yearned
never resting just repeating
the things so very fleeting.

Before I could speak,
or understand a thought.
longed for, ever seeking
stumbling in the dark.
driven by this yearning
hopelessly, hopelessly lost.

Then I saw a flicker
far in the distance there I saw
I saw a light there glowing,
growing very stronger,
as I crawled.

Crawling out from the darkness,
You set me on my feet,
showed me what I was yearning for,
helped me find Your peace.

The yearning is my calling
What I was created for
to worship and adore you.
from now till evermore.

For Your good pleasure
I was made to this I can attest.
To love and walk along with You
To enter in Your Rest.

Richard.
