in this posture let me live & hosannas daily give.

Jesus cast a look on me,
Give me sweet simplicity.
Make me poor and keep me low,
Seeking only Thee to know.

Tonight I am grateful for:
+ C.S. Lewis books.
+ vintage flannel pajama bottoms.
+ old friends.
+ new friends.
+ mochas from Ebenezer's.
+ my favorite grey sweater.
+ bad '70s pop music.
+ forgiveness.
+ my dad, who talks to me about loving people for God's sake & sends me banana bread.
+ my mom, who talks to me about politics & mails me my winter coats & boots.
+ my church, which is always sincere, warm, beautiful, & humbling.

Leaning on Thy loving breast,
Where a weary soul can rest.
Feeling well the peace of God,
Flowing from His precious blood.
