a poem

You called me out of darkness,
Beckoning me with words of love.
You called me into wisdom,
Singing songs of promise.
There was hope in Your voice,
and captivating compassion in Your words.
How can I resist such a thing?
How can I resist such a God?

With everything You do,
You show me Your deep love for me.
And everything You say
Guides me to a better place.
How can I do anything but worship?
How can I do anything but praise You?

Your emotions run so deep,
Your every move betters me.
In everything I see now
Is Your deep abiding love for me.
There's no way to ignore,
No way to silence Your call.
I need You in my life
Like You want me by Your side.
