A Mirror Dimly
I see you through a mirror dim
But someday face to face
It’s blurry due to all the sin
That plagues our fallen race
Creation shows your artistry
And attributes as well
I gaze upon the stars and trees
Your glory is what they tell
My conscience is your witness
That both shows me wrong and right
The law is written on my heart
Because this inner light
Your Word is like fresh oxygen
I breathe from heavens heights
It testifies of your great son
On whom I’ve set my sights
But my knowledge is imperfect
As I look through darkened glass
I’ve all but scraped the surface
How much longer must this last?
I long for more than just this life trusting heaven has it all
I’ll know You as I’m fully known
Before Your throne I’ll fall
So Father as I peer with blurry vision incomplete
I pray you’ll guard me till the day that Face to face we meet

I hope this has shined some light!
