Your Gentleness


On Mother's Day of 2016 my pastor preached a sermon on gentleness as one of the fruits of the Spirit. He quipped that there were not any worship songs on God and His gentleness. I took that, of course, as a challenge. Here is my answer to that challenge.

 

As grasses that bend and don't break

As day does the night forsake

As whispers after fire and quake

Your gentleness powerfully strengthens us.

As pear blossoms yield to the leaves

As Ruth to Naomi did cleave

As our cares Your presence relieves

Your gentleness graciously preserves us.

You are gentle

You are meek

You bring rest

It's You I seek

Let me fall at Your feet

You are gentle, so gentle.

As waves lap and not pound the shore

As the beauty of the earth we cannot ignore

As forgiveness You upon us pour

Your gentleness amazingly restores us.

As Your might You channel and constrain

Your mercy is our refrain

Forever and ever You reign

Your gentleness lovingly transforms us

Your gentleness lovingly transforms us.
