Looking Down

They say looking down

Is awe inspiring from great heights.

I say looking up

Is where the real mystery is.

 

Sitting in a flying plane

Looking down at the clouds.

Leaves you with expectations

But no wings to fly around.

 

We always want

What's beyond our grasp.

But in reality

God sits by our side.

 

We can talk without words

And he hears what we say.

His love for us

Has been shown in many ways.

 

There was only one way

We would understand his love.

And that was to offer himself

And die on the cross.
