Isolated

Years ago, my husband and I went to Niagara Falls
and rode the Maid in the Mist boat up close(r) to the base of the falls.
The sound of the water was so loud.
I am not a publicly demonstrative person.
I do not make displays of myself in public.
But I was so overwhelmed in wonder
I began to sing 'How Great Thou Art' as loud as I could.
No one could hear me.
It was just for Him.
His voice is described as being like the sound of many waters,
and the thing that amazed me was how that sound
isolated every person crammed onto that boat.
It set each one of us completely apart.
When we stand before the Lord, we stand alone.
