How Can I?

How Can I?
(January 21, 2016)

=========================

How can I speak of you
Sweet Jesus?

My mouth, always so full of words,
Struck mute.

Words, my life long play things,
Utterly abandoned.

Toys scattered across the floorboard of
My mind.

Even angels, having heralded Your majesty
For millennia.

Anthems unrivaled by any song of man
Ring hollow…

Chorus’ created for a King shallow compared
To You.

Feeble attempts to articulate what I can never
Fully understand.

Crumpled paper frustrations, tossed away
Always insufficient!

Yet, bubbling to the surface of my heart
Worship rises.

Uncontainable joy; inexpressible peace and unrivaled love are
You Jesus.

Mere words are not enough, let my whole life be

My worship…
