Just Wondering

Written By: Chris Mace

Penobscot river, Edinburg, Maine

Sitting here beside the river, Listening to rippling waters run,
Wondering, Thinking of matters underneath the sun

How great the universe, how blue the sky
How beautiful and broken
the world to which you came to die

Sitting here beside the river, Listening to the rippling water run. Pondering. Thinking about why you had to come

Love beyond comprehension,
Compassion so extreme
Why should I sit here forgiven
Here beside my stream
Listening to the rippling waters run?

Sovereign God, Creator
to you I owe my life
How wonderful your Gospel
Which took away my sin and strife

A child of God praying by the water,
Listening to the rippling river run
At peace despite disorder
Because of what Christ has done

Sitting by the river. Watching the rippling waters run, Wondering, Thinking about matters way beyond the sun
