The center of it all

the purpose of each act,

is to rest in sweet communion,

not gain another Holy fact.

Striving but to please

our just and holy King,

seems to us quite good,

but it�s not a fruitful thing.

To realize our failures,

our weaknesses and sin,

opens up the door

to let our Savior in.

A hustle bustle servant

sending clutter through the air,

in the midst of striving,

can�t see Jesus standing there

longing for this child

to snuggle deep in His embrace,

and realize his purpose,

in looking on His face.
