Lover of My Soul

Lover of My Soul
When I see the winter turning into spring,
Oh, it speaks to this heart of mine more than anything.
Underneath a blanket of snow cold and white,
Something is stirring in the still of the night.

When the sun comes up slowly with the dawn,
Oh, this is the kind of feeling that I hang my hope upon.
There is a love and beauty in all that I see
And no one, nobody is explaining You to me.

Chorus:
And maybe my eyes can't see
But You are surrounding me
Here in the wind and rain,
The things that I know.
Tender and sweet
And strong as my need
I know the voice, I know the touch,
Lover of my soul.

When the evening sun slowly fades to red
And time and time and time again I whisper in my head,
"Give me grace, give me strength to fully believe
That the maker of this whole wide world is a father to me."

I love that song by Amy Grant. The Lord is the Lover of my soul. He speaks to me through His creation, wooing me, calling to me, drawing me to the only place my deepest longings will be filled. I love the line "Tender and sweet and strong as my need." He knows what I need. The Creator of the Universe also formed me in my mother's womb and created my fingerprints and my curly hair :) ...and loves me enough to care about the cries of my heart.

What an amazing God is He.
