     I Am

I have known you now for quite sometime
All I have is what I can picture in my mind
I think about what lies so far beyond
God, I want to be one of them placed in your arms...

I am a child of yours that you have made
And so preciously, Father,  in your sweet name
For every uneasy moment I have ever gone through
I only made it, God, because of you...

I've found that your love has made me as great as the wind
I am strong, yet calm, with every day I'm given
Just like the wind I can go from place to place
As long as I am solid, God, with powerful faith...

I am just like the rain so gentle and pure
And like the rain when I fall I don't hurt anymore
You've given me soft land below my feet
Now, I wear the ground so well since I've been handed peace...

I never knew I could be like the clouds that hang in the sky
Because I never knew such love could lift me so high
I cover the world like a blanket so soft overhead
And I lie like heavens pillow so the angels can rest...

At last when the sky is lit with the stars at night
Then others will know it's because of God that I shine so bright
I am like the light that gives way to those in the dark
I now stand out, God, because of your heart...

I am like everything I have ever wanted to be
Because I have God walking closely with me
I have opened my eyes and let my love come in
Now, I am what I am because of him...
