Overshadow Me

Overshadow Me

Overshadow me

As my path stretches out into

Unknown tracts

I hasten towards

The call

Of my heart

Yet craving Your company

All the while at my right hand

In the uncharted way

Where life and death

Intertwine

Overshadow me

In the mists of the morning

Rising to greet you

Overshadow me

Overshadow me

Through the labours of the day

When the grind is hard

And the fair way

Distant to sight

Overshadow me

As dusk and night approach

And the howl of wind

Cloaks me out of sight

Overshadow me

Overshadow me

Through the dark night watch

When heart and body rest

And I’m hidden from the light

Overshadow me

Completely in Your heart

So, peace envelops me

As I lay apart

Overshadow me
