December 6

I swim in waves of mercy,

Am carried by the grace,

The water laps up against my face

And I'm completely bathed in this love.

It carries me when I just can't kick to swim another yard-

It actually seems to move me faster sometimes when I fall limp, and helplessly,
float.

When I kick and swim with all my might

Trying to get beyond wherever I am-

Those waters, they cushion my angry fists

And simply catch my angry tears, counting each one.

I don't understand every season,

I sometimes don't want to leave, or desperately want to be done,

But these waters forever, perplexingly, wonderfully and lovingly

Always carry me along;

God of love, whose compassion is deeper and wider than all the seas.
