HILLTOPS
by Jacque Graham Tonight I stood on a hilltop; I know not why. The wind blew, hit me, Then passed me by. I ran down, Down, through flowers dense. I was free and lacked all sense Of time as I ran on. I came to a wood. The trees stood tall, And still I ran on, Unthinking through all. I stumbled and fell, And opening my eyes, I beheld a small cloud Pasted on reverent skies. I lay in a trance For the longest while.... Then I knew. Tonight I stood on a hilltop; I know now why. God led me there In the windy still. He led me there To show His will. Then I see and run And exhausted fall, And He'll pick me up When I answer His call.
