Sometimes, memories seem to come out of nowhere; they never really Left, but moments call things into being again....for me, like the music of Susan Ashton
I've seen You calm the waters raging
In the rivers of my mind
Your spirit blows a breeze into my soul
And I've felt the fire that warms the heart
Knowing that it comes from You
Then I've let it turn as cold as a stone
Sometimes I feel like
I'm as close as Your shadow
And sometimes I feel like
I'm looking up at You
From the bottom of the Grand Canyon, so small and so far
From the Grand Canyon with a hole in my heart
And I'm a long way from where I know I need to be
When there's a Grand Canyon between You and me
I've had the faith that gave me strength
For moving any mountainside
I've felt the solid ground beneath my feet
But I've had the bread of idleness
While drinking from a well of doubt
And it shakes the core of all I believe
Sometimes I feel like
I'm as close as Your shadow
And sometimes I feel like
I'm looking up at You
From the bottom of the Grand Canyon, so small and so far
From the Grand Canyon with a hole in my heart
And I'm a long way from where I know I need to be
When there's a Grand Canyon between You and me
When there's a Grand Canyon between You and me

and,
All alone on a summer evening, and the twilights oh so clear
Another sunset slowly fading, stars are starting to appear
And in the midst of all this wonder, my troubles disappear
Caught up in Your presence, Lord as You draw near I am
Waiting for Your love to come down
Oh I will be waiting, for Your love to come down
Your tender mercies are the strength that I have found
My heart is longing now, waiting for Your love to come down
Time and time again I've wandered, down the road to anywhere
Looking for a love unchanging, searching for it everywhere
Till the day when love came calling, answered my every prayer
Heaven knows where I would go without You there so I'm
Waiting for Your love to come down
Oh I will be waiting, for Your love to come down
Your tender mercies are the strength that I have found
My heart is longing now, waiting for Your love to come down
I don't need to be persuaded
Nothing on earth can fill this craving
I just need Your love, that's why I'm
Waiting for Your love to come down
Oh I will be waiting, yeah yeah, for Your love to come down
For Your love I will be waiting
For Your love I will be waiting
For Your love I will be waiting
I'll be waitin
