If one would climb the heights…
I. Oh to dwell
Between a Rock and a Redeemer
To find oneself secure
Against life's storms.
To live
Within reach...
Of One powerful to rescue;
Mercy in his grasp.

II. If you would climb the heights
First bend low; not before men
But before the One who will stack
Your vertebrae for strength.
Curve upon curve
Inclining toward the One
Who both gives and sustains
Life.
This then is living...inclined toward all of life's source
