Lullaby Osmosis?

Listening to worship songs, in between intermittent snores, rise in Sweetness' room as lullabies and my mind can't help to wonder: Did I do enough to show her the the Father's heart today? Did I pour into her heart enough? Did I listen enough? Did I give her love in the best way SHE receives it? Did I show her enough kindness and compassion that she would know how to model kindness and compassion to others? Probably not, but I did my best. My heart aches for her to chase after Him. I pray, from the deepest corners of my soul, that those sweet lyrics rest over her heart, fuse into her memories, and that she would grow to know the vast love the Father has for her.

I live in the wonder of Your love
You rise like the sun in my heart
Even when the night draws near me
There You are

I will wade in the water of mercy
I will walk in the light of Your will
Whatever should come against me
Teach me to be still

As You sing over me
Draw me close to rest in Your peace
Sing over me, oh, sing

Sing of Your unending faithfulness
That knows no doubt or fear
In the face of all that I don't know yet
Remind me of who You are

Sing over me
Draw me close to rest in Your peace
Sing over me, oh, sing

You are mighty, You will save
Rejoice over me with singing
You will quiet by Your love
Glory over me with singing

You are mighty, You will save
Rejoice over me with singing
You will quiet by Your love
Glory over me with singing

Sing over me
Draw me close to rest in Your peace
Sing over me, oh, sing

Oh, sing over me
Draw me close to rest in Your peace
Sing over me, oh, sing
Sing


-Bethany Dillon and Nichole Nordeman "Sing Over Me"
