Child of Light

Child of light, lost in a world of perpetual night

Do not fear, for the pain experienced is not without glories untold….

Behold! The dawn approaches, but not before we are made undone

For without this sorrow, we would not know how to recognize the true love that has sustained our hearts every step of the way

How I long for the day

When we can look into the eyes of purest perfection and KNOW that every trial that has come upon us in this midnight of smothering waste was not without reason…

So let us now make haste, to let ourselves be found in him….take my hand and we will walk away from all that is familiar

Into the unknown life that awaits us

With the undying promise that we will not be forsaken

But cause and effect still has its place

That is one simple fact we can not erase

Nevertheless we can not loose heart and let our own inabilities overcome the sacred promise we’ve been given

That whatever befalls us, it will not be more than we can bear

Alas! How easily our purpose here is forgotten in the jumbled up confusion of all that we do not understand

So let us now take a stand, against ignorance

Let us join the masses in the ageless dance

That moves with the rhythm of knowing in advance

There will be more than enough struggles to face

But knowing as well that during the great intermission

We will step out of the darkness, step out of the night

And be crowned eternal with glory and grace….

…into what’s pure, into what’s right…

Forevermore…..as children of light.
