To Stand In Your Presence

To stand in Your presence
Beholding Your face;
To live in forever,
In Your splendor and grace.

 

In this fallen place,
All too often my gaze
Is easily moved,
My perspective displaced.

 

Your awesome creation,
Surrounding beauty…
Competing with a fallen state
That brings out the very worst of me.
