The winds of change

On white sand I stand facing
Gusty winds of change
Turquoise buried in the sea
Sky - swirling milky blue

Just there in the horizon
Lazy mountains navy blue
Rising misty masses
A bare and hazy hue

As I stand and face this ocean
So deep and wide and far
I know I must embrace
These winds blowing from afar

Winds that blow so strong and fine
Stripping cobwebs away
Bringing fresh and tangy sunshine
Lighting a darkened heart

The Lord my God is mighty
His love great oceans deep
So many lives He touches
Yet my heart He seeks to keep

The Lord my God is mighty
Yet He looks into my heart
To root out what needs weeding
In the furrows of the heart

He sees our every action
Every thought we think in place
He sees our motivation
The blood covers us in Grace.

Here I stand as the winds blow
Here I stand with all to gain
Lord thank you I'm not shallow
That I just look to me to blame

And know that you are listening
And know that You are right
Your Grace is what the girl needs
That gets foundations right.
