To Him I Owe All

by Diana Barahona   Aug 22, 2011


I sit still staring at the trees before me
the branches swaying to the rhythm of the wind
leaves bristling to the sound of the breeze.
Swoosh, swoosh...Swoosh, swoosh.
I let the sound take me away
Closing my eyes has never been so easy
feeling one with the perfect measures
swoosh, swoosh, silence...
Can I open my eyes without breaking in tears
without realizing how horrible the world is alone
Why live by yourself when theres someone waiting
for you to let him enter your world...his world.
Our father waits patiently, but why make him wait?
As I sit here surrounded by his glory
getting lost in his creation.
It's time to open my eyes now, though.
What once was, once was, and nothing more.
I live for one purpose, to serve my father who created me.
To praise him with all I have.
These trees surrounding me....The wind...His music.
To him, I owe my life, love and honor.
To him, I owe all.

...I sing
and when I do I feel relaxed
I feel warmth entering my fingertips, toes, and hair,
enlightening toward my heart.
I know he's here, showing my heart what's best.
And he molds my it into something new, something great.
Something unimaginable...Something no eye has ever seen,
no ear has ever heard....Something everlasting with no boundaries.
I feel my arms lifting, higher. My arms reaching toward the skies.
I. Praise. You. Lord.
To you, I owe ALL
