A Road Less Travelled

Let my God display His might
as lightening rips the air,
let thunder bellow out His name
the smallest echo of His true power
just to feel a breath of His
I’m almost blown away.
Let me stand and feel the rain
pelting, stinging, never still
beyond what I could ever dream
beyond what’s tame and calm and nice
the heart of God poured out on me.
Somewhere beyond beyond
is the full force of eternal love
but here on earth a tiny glimpse
that I can touch and taste and see
to know my God is stronger than
the tamely flailing plans of men.
And He can take me through the fires
and He can rip my heart in two
and He can drive me to my knees
and I can never understand
the full extent of all His power
but I know that mystery
will always capture all my heart.
