i had forgotten Writer : Annabelle BokI had forgotten How to read Your presence In the Words of the Book In the light of the dawn In the caress of the wind In that warmth that sometimes brings A tingle In the midst of cold I had forgotten How to hear Your voice In the lilt of each melody In the call of each bird In the rustle of leaves underfoot In the silence that sometimes falls For a moment In the midst of noise I had forgotten How to feel Your touch In the fall of each raindrop In the softness of stray cats In the brush of his hand In the swelling push of each breath that I take In the midst of existing I had forgotten And I had forgotten us But You never forgot And more than memory More than watching You moved And You came to me And You spoke to me And You touched me In the midst of my rebellion (Though I did not know it was) And I remembered Your love never changes Your grace never falters Your loyalty to my changing heart Complete And by healing me You have also broken me Here at Your feet I remember And I forget And I weep for the time that was lost But yet You comfort me And restore me And exalt me And I will never again forget Your faithfulness.
