A chance at meeting

A chance at meeting
This heart that is beating
Wondering still
Wondering will

Maybe twill be
Maybe we'll see
Yet life is still
A mystery

Not one moment can be seen for sure
Not one moment than before
Waiting with anticipation
Waking with surprise
As you open your eyes
To some glorious realization
It could be

Why toss it aside
For chance
Or romance
Ah, a distant glance
And let it go
It's all for show
They'll never know

Don't hide beneath
Your riddles and rhyme
There's always time
To reminisce
Don't forget this

All moments are new
And this much is true
They'll always hold
As precious gold
Your glory inside

For twas you who made
Such emotions as pride
Or love
Twere all of
Your creation

Each has its place
In all of time and space
Oh, but hold not long
On any one thing
But gaze instead
On its creator and king

For tis he and he alone
Who is worth everything
Not bride nor brother
Nor any other
Can give so fully as he

For tis he who loves
So perfectly
And if he is good
Will he not also give
Such gifts
And desires
That will bring us closer

To Him who is able
To give this and more
May we always
Long for and only
Adore
