Blessed
Love flows gently
Like blood through my veins
Stained windows in the church
Kneeling behind heavens' panes
Dressed in a suit
People all around
Dying child stands before us
Congregation on the ground
Blessings from the tongue
Prayers leak from the teeth
It's in God's hands
With a beautiful belief
Trauma from the heart
As it pounds through my chest
Illness stolen from his body
A boy who's now blessed
