God On a Cold Night

God on a cold night
Hears my frozen fears
The numbness of my solitude
The wind around my ears

God on a cold night
Crackles in the trees
Dances on the clouded moon
Whistles through the leaves

God on a cold night
Guards the warming fire
Waits in silence whispering
To angels on the wire

God on a cold night
Knows my loneliness
Holds the hope of harboring
My soul come home to rest

I live on the edge of permanence
I yearn to know the light
I speak in hushed vibrations to
God on a cold night.
