Still to sing with heaven's song (Andrew E. Pratt)

Hidden God, I long to see you,
long to hear your voice;
here amid the haste and hurry,
need a reason to rejoice.

More than just this global grounding,
more than just a home,
far beyond the raging river,
far beyond this fazing foam.

Blinding light of realisation,
long to catch a trace;
source, and end, of contemplation,
long to sense your saving grace.

But, if I should never glimpse you
help me to go on;
give me hope and motivation
still to sing with heaven's song.
