You are the core of my life, the crux of every statement You surround me, I surround you too I am a satellite, hovering about who you are You’re the sun; I’m the earth, rotating in your glow Let your sovereign, providential hand lead me Let your sovereign, providential hand keep me Who I am is in you, like someone immersed in the deep end of a Water pool Inside of you I live and move and have my being You are more concerned with keeping me than exalting me You would even use the pains of life to draw me close If this be my hand my father, I receive it, I am yours alone
