Climbing the Heights

Awaken oh dawn

Awaken oh dawn
And break forth
Into day

Awaken oh sun
And steal me
Away

Surround me
In your warmth
And melt me
Deep within

Fill this void
That oft
Hath enshrouded
me

Oh come and taste
Thine early hours
Of grace

Soothe my sorrows
And steady
My pace

Rest awhile
In thy refreshing
Rays

Welcoming in
This wandering
Heart

Safe and still
Thine anthem
Surreal

Yet sure
Thy motive
Is pure

Yes come
Drink
And take
Thy fill

-Joshua Lee Foist
