This evening I was listening to music on the train. The one below, I wrote out the words because it is beautiful and helps me to communicate with Jesus, in the way, some nights, songs just do. It made me recall one late night this past August; one of the most intense weeks of my life ... of a friend stopping me in the reeds at the beach and praying Psalm 23 over me, from memory. This song was inspired by Psalm 23 and that psalm has been an extremely powerful one in my life. So, here it goes.
Walk with me quiet
Walk with me slow
With watered down coffee and words of gold
I can feel the edges of these things
When I hear you speak to me
So walk with me
Walk with me empty
Walk with me strong
The hush of our voices
When the day seems so long
It is like a balm
It is like a jewel
It unravels all I thought I knew
Will you lead me
Beside the still waters
Where the oil
It runs over
And my cup overflows
You restore my soul
Tell me the story
Where old is made new
The promise of ages
And all things that are true
When the shadows fall and the wrecking ball
Swings and tears me through the heart
