Where Love Knows Me Best

I found grace and humble my pride
Where fear grips and holds my heart in
Turning aside anger I choose mercy
Over again I pray 'let love win'

Beyond the layers of hurting wounds
Where stones of defeat erect walls within
Underneath the transparent need to hope
This fragile woman walks away from sin

I bid each step birth a greater space
Between the alluring whiles of Satan's hold
To where threads of strength remain true
Proclaiming over me a victory bold

I dare turn this walk into a run
Lifting my head and opening my heart
Sifting and sorting away the mire
That threatens to rob this new days start

With gleeful face and dainty toes
My hands outstretch to Papa's chest
I awaken within with each tiny step
And breathe free-
Where Love knows me best
