This was the prayer that came to my spirit as I walked and prayed this morning.
If a celestial staircase opened before me Lord,
I would climb it, step by step, all the way to heaven.
If I could lay my burdens down,
I would lay them all down now, at Your feet oh Lord.
If the noise of this world could be silenced forever,
O what a glorious moment that would be.
For nothing surpasses the peace of Your presence,
The stillness, the holy rest of our God.
There is no clamoring when we draw near to You, Lord,
Only rest, and peace, and stillness.
You make me lie down in pastures green,
You lead me beside the still waters of life.
Amid the tumult and noise of this age,
Fix my mind on the eternal, unseen kingdom.
Open my eyes to behold Your way,
The kingdom that cannot be shaken.
Open the staircase of heaven before me, Lord,
That I might climb into Your presence,
Leaving the clamor and the noise behind,
And dwelling forever in Your light.
I turned this prayer into a song…….bro Frank
