In this
glade
tranquility
abounds,
Your
soothing
presence
surrounds,
I hear
your
whispers
in the
stream,
Your grace
lies on
this
serene
scene.
Your
spirit is
in the
calming
breeze,
The gentle
rustling
of forest
leaves.
I feel
your
tenderness
so very
near,
Clearly
Lord
Jesus, you
are here.
I came to
you as a
child in
this place
With heavy
heart and
saddened
face,
I sought
relief
from pains
of
childhood,
You gave
comfort as
no other
could.
I've
wandered
the world
on a quest
Searching
for
cherished
happiness,
Never
remembering
all the
while
Where I'd
found it
as a
troubled
child.
Father it
is here I
return to
you again,
Seeking
forgiveness
of my
worldly
sin.
For years
I've
strayed
from your
grace,
Once more
I return
with tear
stained
face.
Father, I
pray for
forgiveness
this day
For the
burdens of
my life
heavy lay.
My sins
have been
many, my
regrets
few,
Jesus, I
kneel as
your child
before
you.
As a child
of your
creation I
beg
salvation
I seek
once again
our
heavenly
relation,
I am lost
and alone,
I want to
come home
For with
you Father
is where I
belong.
I kneel to
you in
this cool
forest
glade,
Let your
holy
shadow be
my shade.
Jesus,
accept
this
sinner
meek and
mild
Love me
now, As
when I was
a child.
