Top Of The Dance

Can the greatest purpose in our life
be to simply know our King?
If knowing Him is flight
are grace and faith our wings?

If all time is just a wisp of smoke
in a vast eternal sky,
then knowing The Eternal
should be the reason that we fly.

It takes faith to see this life
as an eternal cosmic dance,
with eyes and feet fixed on the ground
we don't embrace the great romance.

Which states, God so loved the world
that He sent His only Son,
so we, for all eternity,
could finally live as one.

Leap off this ground of selfish pride,
God provides both wings and air,
in this flight of faith, you're not alone,
Jesus dances with you there.
