The Eternal Now

Seconds tick on by As my clock upon the wall Measures the passing of moments And reminds me that I live within time You, my beloved, Are no longer constrained by time But live within the eternal moment The ever-present now For you, past and future Are no longer relevant For all is eternal now As God declares Himself, “I am” Jesus, Alpha and Omega Beginning and End Be with us who live in time And those who have moved beyond it In this separation Comfort and strengthen us Until we reach that perfect union That is life with you Help us to seek such moments That enable us to know eternity is in our hearts Chosen by you before creation Called to display your likeness here on earth Let us look towards the day When we shall see you face to face And miracle of miracles ~ We shall be like you!
