I SOUGHT THEE, LORD
by Eva Marie Stover

I sought Thee, LORD, as I took my walk, in quiet stillness, all thoughts on You.
I sought Thee, in the sky above how wondrous the clouds and sky of blue.

I sought Thee in the valleys low, where flowers smelled of fragrance fresh.
And running through the grass so green. To be with Thee was my fondest wish.

I sought Thee on the mountains high, which pierced the clouds and touched the sky.
How cool the breeze that brushed my face.  Dear LORD, I seek Thy face.

I sought Thee in the oceans depth.  How deep, past coral reefs and sand.
I could not reach the place of dreams.  Oh how I've yearned, to touch Thy hand.

I sought Thee in the morning rain, as I lifted my face to glistening drops.
How gently on my face they fell.  Then slid unto the earthen crops.

I sought Thee in the noonday breeze, to hear the echo of Thy voice.
Only hearing the rustling of the leaves, a swaying tree, a gentle noise.

I've sought Thee, LORD, in so many things; a cocoon spun and pretty butterfly wings.
Yet all the while, Thou wast leading me.  Twas in my heart, where I found Thee.
