Believe
In the depths of my despair
Beyond the menacing fog and haze
I was guided to a new place
At the shoreline, I looked up
And saw grace, splashed across the face
Of an early morning sky
Spanning wider that the eye could visualize
Transforming, moment by moment
As if a living, breathing being!
How can it be?
That a morning sky showered upon me
Such vivid beauty, opening my eyes to new truth
Re-awakening all my senses to You
The deepest hues of blue, pinks so alive
As if on fire, majestic purples, oh so regal!
Angst was forced to flee its host named lethargy
As I gazed into a sky afire,
I wondered at others... Do they too
Sense You, here, there, everywhere?
Words written in colour spoke
Clearly to me, hues of hope,
Tones of truth, streaks of light and clarity
Day by day, You shower us
With intimate displays
Of Your presence, Your holy essence
Who dare ignore You?
Creator, Sustainer, Saviour, Redeemer
Let everyone believe and be forevermore at peace.
