Falling For You

I wrote this song this summer on my vacation to North Carolina.  I was sitting on the beach one afternoon, and began to think about how awesome God is.  I tried to find the edge of the ocean.  From where I sat, it looked as if you could take a boat to the edge and fall over like a waterfall.  The massive body of water always leaves me in awe.  I begin to fill the presence of God as I try to somewhat consume His awesomeness.  The first verse describes the way I feel at that moment. 

I remember sitting there watching the tide roll in.  I placed my beach chair just after the wave break so that the tide would roll up and wet my feet.  I began to get so impatient, as one incoming tide after another didn't quite make it up to me.  Finally, one works its way up and brings refreshment.  It was if the Lord spoke to me right then.  I thought about how much it is the same with God.  He continues to draw near to us.  He waits patiently for us to come to Him, often pulling away, coming back, pulling away, and coming back until we finally meet Him.  He desires so badly to be near us.  I believe I got a miniscule taste of just how much he misses us and awaits for our return to Him with each day.

My heartfelt desire is to fall more in love with the Lord with each and every passing day.  Although there are days that I fall way short, I continue to strive to maintain that relationship.

I have put these thoughts and feelings into an up-beat, rock/pop song that I hope everyone can relate to and enjoy.  Many of you will notice that this one could go either way.  It could be a love song to a significant other!  Of course, for me, this time the significant other happens to be my Savior. : )
