Sitting at the top of the cliff
feeling the wind in my hair.
Overlooking the deep blue water
I know that God is there.
This is the place that I come to
when I need to find some peace.
To escape from the pressures of life
and to "on life" gain a new lease.
Lately I've been finding life
a little hard to bear.
Ongoing daily struggles until
I'm tearing out my hair.
Every waking moment
I've felt like I've been let down.
Seemingly insignificant
sliding further down.
Before I lose the battle
I come back to this place of mine
I see God's wondrous beauty
and realise that I will be fine.
It's hard to see the wider view
if peace is not in your heart.
Feeling the gentle beauty of this place
provides to me a new start.
Renewed by the time out,
the peaceful surroundings here.
I thank God for His gift of Love
and now I have no fear.
Don't travel the road alone,
take time to be thankful for God's gifts.
It's then that you truly realize
that your soul does get a lift.
Tonight I can close my eyes and feel
God's smile He placed inside my heart.
A gentle reminder of how much we all
need to sometimes go back to the start.
