He Will Stay
Jesus is drifting well through my soul
With stillness of love, making me whole
So gentle, and soft, He swaddles me
Opening my eyes, to help me see
What a glorious fragrance, the scent ever so
sweet
He takes me to heaven, keeps my faith concrete
Wrapping me up in His arms when I sway
Keeping me close, when on sin, I do lay
Loving me more, with each passing hour
Holding me up, when I feel I should cower
Taking my hand, and leading me in
Always showing me, where I should begin
He never abandons, this child that he made
Even though many times, I have not made the
grade
Staying so close, He carries the weight
So in the future, I may enter, Heaven's Gate
Do you feel His presence, every passing minute?
If you don't, you are missing, the love that is
in it
In the silence you'll feel, a Father so true
Never willing to give up, not once, on you
Come to His throne, He will not make you leave
He'll give your heart rest, a welcome reprieve
Your sins are made white, when in His blood, you
lay
For He is alive, and with you He will stay.
