In the Name of God

IN THE NAME OF GOD Did I cross the line? I wanted to know your name. Laboring to describe my feeble attempts in vain. Trying to make known in language and verse one who was and is Lord of the universe. How can I speak eloquent with this unclean tongue? How can the words flow in the presence of the One? A voice reaches through this wall I call heart. Child, I’ve heard the names. I’ve been here from the start. I AM, that made the universe. I AM, that made you, too. You.ve always known my name. You’ve always known it’s true. You’ve known my name when you were crying. You’ve spoken it as you were dying. You’ve said it with your lips at sunsets of red and blue. It echoed from the mountains and from the morning dew. My name will remain long after earth is gone. It will always be long after my work’s done. My name’s not in books, or written by flowing pen. But written in the heart of man. That’s where my name begins. Where healing is spoken and mercy is wrote. Where eternity lives and the veil was broke. If it’s a name you need to know me a little more. Call me The Key, I’ve opened the door. DEC- 2013
