A Psalm of Refuge

A psalm of refuge

Christ You are my refuge. I find comfort and solace in Your presence. Though I may be exhausted, my spirit is alive with joy at the thought of You. My energy melts away as candle wax, yet your strength sustains me. My heart grows weary in laboring love, yet Your grace fills me. Rest seems to hide from me, yet Your very essence exudes relaxation. Much in me longs for escape but You are my escape. You are for me a strong tower. As the song of a bird is soothing to the ear so are your words to my heart. They give life to the dead places of my soul. They provide strength to my tired and aching muscles. You Oh Christ are my life. In you I long to dwell. Christ you are my refuge.
