Meet Me

 
Meet me in the coffee shop
Meet me in the diner
Meet me in the work place…
Meet me in the church-yard,
There’s no time to waste…
 
I’m waiting in the morning
I’m waiting at midday
I’m waiting when you’re sleeping
And I’m waiting when you play
I see the little sparrow as he sings his merry tune
I see the meadow lark and the lambs that bay
I see the statuesque gray loon
 
I see you in the sunlight
I hear the wolves, howling, at the moon…
Meet me in the garden there is always room
I’ve called you in the midnight
When I heard you crying in the dark
I’ve called you when you were afraid
Listening to the song of the nightingale and the sadness of the lark
I’ve been waiting for the moment when you’d open up your heart…
Do not tarry long, its way past time to start…
Do not hesitate for one more minute
I can’t begin to tell you, what your life will be like,
With me in it
 
I set aside this special time for you, and me, to dine…
Just over there, by the pond, that is where you’ll find…
Peace and joy and love unspeakable, child I want to make you mine…
 
What is this longing in my heart that makes me feel this way…?
I hear a gentle calling; I know I mustn’t delay…
Oh Jesus, if I had known it was you…I would have gone yesterday
I hear the gentle call, and yes, I will obey.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
