To Become
 
Another routine day does pass
Without clear finish or even start
Leading me steadily toward or from
Unvisited places of my heart
 
Sparse time is spent to linger here
To consider the direction ahead
To assess the distance in between
That which is done and that just said
 
The noise of life rings in my ears
Tolling the time of rush and stress
Continuing its din long after the light
A day longing for quiet to caress
 
Savior mine, guide my current path
Help me pause to really become
Form me well in the time I have
Help me see the things you’ve done
 
Give me peace in my world of din
As I reach to touch Your hand
Longing to feel Your calm within
And In Your presence humbly stand
