Keep us, Lord, hungry for truer things.
Keep us thirsty for life your living water brings.
Keep us searching for You, the Spring.
Keep us wanting to worship You, our King.
Give us ears that sense Your voice,
Eyes to see beyond the noise
Hands that serve and choose to rejoice
Hearts to bend, making a choice.
Give us, keep us, use us, teach us.

Wow. … Love your photos and your peaceful words, Jody.
Melanie, I appreciate your comments. (And your 31 days of Noticing Fall…lovely!)
Donna, thank you. Sometimes when God pours things into me and I write them down I just have to trust the Holy Spirit is leading.
So glad it touched you.

The words and pictures are amazing. So good for my soul to take in this morning!
Stopping by from Getting Down with Jesus.
I got goose bumps reading the last lines of the poem. “Hands that serve and choose to rejoice
Hearts to bend, making a choice.” Oh my. Choosing to rejoice and bending hearts. Beautiful.
