Pursuit
I'd write a thousand songs for you
of wildland forests and skies so blue
of misty mountains beneath the sun
and you my darling my only one
You inspire Love my beating heart
I've loved you from introductions start
without you life's shallow and pale
for you my love I shall not fail
My joy in you is measureless
it crowns my life it's heart possess
I've never known the like of you
Your wisdom's great and words all true
There is no wealth upon the earth
could never it exceed your worth
and bound am I to seek your face
to give you all that I encase
In simple songs all creation sings
of life and hope and all her dreams
without your love life's not complete
two hearts as one when love takes seat
You greet me like the morning star
which lights all life both near and far
You take my hand and lead the way
from you my love I'll never stray
Like prisms mirror all of light
every facet gleams your colors bright
your music floats upon the wind
and all it's notes on life descends
Your seal's inscribed upon my head
and it's command our life and bread
Your name's written on heart and shines
and all your words our life defines
And here your Word has found it's home
and from their charge we will not roam
You've drawn us with the Words of Love
Whose source we know comes from above
There's not much here that's left to say
because you fill our nights and day
all creation reflects your face
all wealth it's vaults and nature's grace
We will embrace all that you've taught
to fill our minds and all our thought
our heart's desire your law takes seat
and in life it's commands complete
source the gospels of life
the words of Jesus
The Son of God
