Attention

Would you with Jesus daily walk

only in one direction,

o're the waves on the storms of life

like Peter with fixed attention?

Would you rise or faithless fall 

with your soul's affection?

Sparks

In the cool of the morning

I croon to you warning

of arms that would hold you 

till dark 

as up we lay asking 

at God's kindness basking 

at those sparks in a dark 

lonely sky

We're but sparks in a dark lonely sky 

just sparks in a dark lonely sky 

I would ever-be never without you my love

my spark in a dark lonely life.  

Why we two together

with hands gently tethered

have grace in such generous
supply...

but sparks rose a flame

to a fire never tamed

and the whole world's ablaze

with our light

I would ever-be never without you, my love,

my spark in this dark, lonely life.
