A Place for Us
Joyce C. Lock
All God ever needed
Was to keep us safely
Tucked beneath His wing,
Until we are given our own;
To lift our hearts to His heights,
In the wonders of heaven,
Perfectly at home.
All God ever wanted
Was to keep watch
Until we can see beyond
To His place of heights,
His heaven;
Where we'll be at home.
All God ever needed
Was to teach us to fly
On eagles wings, strong and sure,
With enduring faith
Against the winds of time
And steady currents
Until we'll feel at home.
All God ever hoped for us
Was to keep us from falling
So that, one day soon,
We will be fragile no more
But living forever
In His heights.
For then, we'll be at home.
