Intimacy



We come to you just as we are
and call upon your name.
Just like we do so many times
We look to you the same.
We fall on our face, we cry aloud,
We sing a song of love.
Beyond imagination your sweetness comes
A presence from above.
You come and hold us in your arms,
we cry with tears of pain.
The balm poured out, a healing oil
falls down to us like rain.
Your presence sweet, it makes us melt,
A song of your great love,
We share a love like none before,
Your presence from above.
A divine symbiont that dwells within
your spirit fills each place.
Your song of joy springs in my heart
with such amazing grace
It flows out like an artesian spring,
a well of deepest joy.
A gift you give to open up,
just like a Christmas toy.
