I came around the corner
Burdens piling up
weighed down by a heavy load
My back hunched and tired
In need of some relief
The breeze announced Your presence
To every blade and leaf
Staggered rays of sun
Lit up patches of Your woods
I see why You looked down
And saw that it was good
The pattern of the waves
Gently lapping on the shore
Quieted insecurities
No longer could they roar
I approached a descent
And leaned forward to coast
I began to feel weightless
In your power can I boast
In the meadow on the right
A deer grazed under your care
Why worry about tomorrow
When you are so aware
I looked to my left
And saw miles of blue
I marveled at your masterpiece
And drank in every hue
As the finish line grew near
Not wanting the ride to end
One more view caught my attention
As I came around the bend
Sailboats slightly swaying
Anchored in the harbor
Home after a day of
Navigating rough water
I couldn’t take my eyes off of
This peaceful scene
Cliffs served as the back drop
For a truth so serene
When burdens and worries rise
And we feel lost at sea
When the storms rise within
Our anchor You will be
After a long hour, day, or season,
When faith is put to the test
You invite us to Your harbor
To find peace and rest
