Why is it Lord, I cannot capture You in all the places and faces one is told
we might expect to find You...
Why is it that within a beautiful ornate dwelling, there I cannot find You
Why is it within the noble and wise and all those who hold mighty stations,
I cannot see You...
Why is it that only in a little flower...in the tiny shaft of light,warming and illuming all that may be grand in the eyes of the world...The smallest creature, the humblist soul...How am I able to see You so clearly in all these things and only these things?
I trust You will not give me wealth as the world holds wealth, You will not surround my life with things that hide Your face from me, for no beautiful jewel could excites this heart, as You excite it Lord!
One thing do I desire, to dwell forever, in Your house O Lord, forever in Your house I ask to dwell,to strive my whole life long to make You known so too that others'may be drawn, as I have been drawn to dwell in Your house O Lord wherever Your dwelling may be!
