New Song: God Plays Hide and Seek

One of the integral aspects of our humanity is our search for meaning and purpose.  To know God is to understand that our lives are not inconsequential or accidental.  Finding God is often a complicated and frustrating proposition.  This song is a reflection of that search.

God Plays Hide and Seek

God plays hide and seek

Leaving trails of crumbs for us to find

With twists and turns along a crooked road that winds 

Among the valleys and the peaks 

God plays hide and seek

God plays hard to get

With feigned indifference to our daily toil 

Like a pot-  you watch it, but it never boils 

Like a sideways silhouette 

God plays hard to get

But even when you're  halfway thru the race 

And you find yourself in hot pursuit 

Take some time and think about the chase 

It's not the finish line you seek- it's each step along the route 

God plays fast and loose

The rules change daily at a moment's whim 

There's no devotion, prayer, or ancient hymn 

To bring about a truce 

When God plays fast and loose
