Blessing of Love


Heavy guilt, a bundle packed with fears
Feelings black and filthy,
Sinking through my pores, the shame
Remorse burning dewy tears
Over my dreams, coloring every wish
In murkiest seas of doubting,
Sent by the despairing, the hungry,
The desolate heart who cannot see
Beyond the tears, the fears, the years
Poured out in me…

Bruising my dreams, burning away my light
So it reflects only the silence,
Longsuffering and weary as the night
Who can’t see beyond the black
To glistening moon and stars, reflecting
What we’ll not regret, the beautiful in a song
Soaring beyond the trees, in tones
Of gentle, breathing…

Words meant for only those who see
He is more than light – He is more than breath.
He is healing and love – He is a sign from above
That, whatever might come… 
God has already won – just see what He has done
Believe in His only Son…
See what is to come – love, love and more love
Because He is the One who silences the dark,
Creates joy inside the heart,
And destroys every doubt – He is the One
Who taught me the meaning of love
He is the ONE who took away my guilt
And taught me – I was meant to become
Far better than I’d every expected I could,
Far brighter than I’d every anticipated,
Far more faithful than I’d ever imagined.

Thanks to the One I love – I know the meaning of LOVE
That lifted that burden, that bundle of worry
And replaced it with a gentling warmth that is guiding me
Into His presence, where I’ll always experience His blessing!
