Forever Near

I looked across the beautiful horizon
Witnessing God’s grace… so beautifully sweet
I stood upon the grandest mountain
As the morning glories… opened at my feet

There my hands touched the silkiness of the petals
The perfume of life… my soul would graciously greet
In that moment I held in my heart
Was joyfulness… so amazingly complete

There among the clouds so high
I raised my hands… to Him above
Giving all the glory… praising Him
Singing of my endless love

There I sang to my hearts delight
For all who wish to hear
Echoing across the valley
Reaching horizons both far and near

All the way past the highest clouds
Touching all… listening ears
Sending my praises to Thee
The One my heart holds... forever near
