The Mountain Peaks at Dawn

      I'm currently reading "Mountains of Spices" by Hannah Hurnard. "Hinds Feet on High Places," the first book, really ministered to me when I read it some years ago. Emily gave me both books and I took the second one to Norway with me. I felt the slight urging to start reading it, and since I have, I see again how God's timing is perfect. The message and words are confirming the themes God has been bringing up in my life since being here in Norway. Simple truths. Profound Love. This is a song the young woman named "Glory and Grace" sings to her Beloved, the Shepard, on the Mountains of Spices. It fits perfectly with the setting I am in here in Norway-Praise Jesus!-and it speaks out my heart. Be Blessed. And run to meet Him.

The Mountain Peaks at Dawn
As in the early morning 
the snowy mountain peaks
Look up to greet the dawning,
 So my heart longs and seeks
To see thy face
And glow with grace


Here like the peaks at sunrise 
My mind to thee I raise;
Clothe me with glory likewise, 
Make me to burn with praise
In love's attire
Of flaming fire


In robes of snowy whiteness
 They greet their lord the sun;

I too, await thy brightness, 

On winged feet I run.
Give, now we meet,
Communion sweet.
