raise my
hands up high
my face is kissed
with moisture
A sky
drop falls
landing nigh
a glistening tear The
that fell from gentle wind
heaven's a passing sigh
eye unable to answer
the question
my soul's
The "why?"
wetness drapes
my heart’s own lie
and binds it to the ground
I fall upon my knees
and bid my hope
Yet goodbye
something deep
refuses to comply
I raise my head to hills
that arch atop
my head so A
high flicker from
the birds that fly
above on gilded wings
brings the thought
that still I A
want to ray peeks
try like faith so shy
to warm my aching heart
as glimmer spreads
and wet cheeks
dry
A whisper comes and know
like gentle mist "my child, be still I am always near"
to fall upon my ear
When torrents pour
with lightning pain the still soft voice
until I cannot see will touch my heart
"Child, look to Me"
and questions call
Still darkness blinds and teardrops come     but in the quiet
like rain of my soul
He's waiting
through the pain
I find the strength
to lift my head up to the light
and look and though around
the storm goes on
A Father smiles
and holds out a hand the storm
to lift me through and then I know my faith has
that I can trust been reborn
His tear upon my cheek
and feel no matter where
I spread my arms no matter what
He is the one
And so I bow I seek
before the throne
wherein dwells the Lamb
and it's enough
to understand
The Great
I AM
