your fearful search for comfort and control.
 Let go my grasp of things apart from God,
 for God alone can heal and hold my soul.
 Return to God, for God alone will love me,
 and give me life, and bless and make me whole. 
    Return, my soul, from all the things that dull me, 
that soothe my sense, but leave my sin in place.
 My broken heart, return from tricks and bargains; 
turn to the One who meets me face to face. 
Return to God. Each moment turn again;
 receive unending love and life and grace. 

    I turn, O God, to you who love with patience.
 You walk beside me, though I cannot see.
 You are my life in dry and weary deserts,
 my spring of life that flows eternally.
 I turn to you, from false desire and grasping,
 and letting go, I find that you hold me.
