Unlike the seas, who believe In keeping their secrets, Seizing the hopes and dreams Inspirations that agree Generosity sees the need Provides without expectation Contributes and never listens To the voice of greed – believes Giving is the way to bring to life Representative of His sacrifice The light, reflecting grace Pleads with the shame, the doubts Stirring both feelings of hope And feelings of faith who blend Together with the love who knows It is the whisper of compassion Silencing the darkness, stretching Its hand across the skies Erasing the breaths of disgrace Pouring out light who abides On the inside, in the spirit Where only God is the witness To kindness that is ever precious Gentling the heart and gifting Each feeling with tenderness Easy flow of laughter, Smiles that abide on the whispers Brought to life by insight Inspirations from the heart Who knows that it is in acceptance Where hardness surrenders To the touch of a strength Far greater, wiser, fiercer than Any resistance found in the darkness Faded blows of reservation, disbelief Suspicions that surely deceive It is obedience to the One who is Creator, our Maker, who brings The promise of a real victory Quiet winds of joy, peace Whispering through the breeze Seeing only the good His promises bring to those Who grow their hearts with belief In a love that abides, through doubt Through grief, through the darkest Moments of despair, disgrace Dread that haunts, despite All the hope that is alive In the calm, the hues of grace Serenity unfolds in its wake Assuring the soul of a place Far more wonderful than earth A home where God is the One To bring light and life, love The darkness deceives With slanders and smears, Deceptions so real They penetrate the dreams Yet, verity sings Candor and realism Integrity that agrees To the facts who free, honesty So certain that God’s love Pours fidelity, purpose Through the heart who agrees It is the actuality of mercy Who vibrates through the spirit Breathing wonder, mystery Inspiration who compels Believers to agree… His truth Brings the spirit victory In agreement We each see the reason For life, love, lasting Through this life, into the hereafter Where His light shines, sparkling Through the hearts and souls Making a way where no way was known Reassuring the soul that love is in control And, it is Him – the One who knows Souls, - who brings the answers The agreement that in unity We find a way to succeed in this life And to know the wonder of love Eternally, forever – with Him, The Maker of every living thing Every heart, every hope, every goal He is the Maker who knows… How to shine through our own soul The opposition would like to see Our spirits in pain, our grief, our disdain But, through love – through grace He brings a sweetness to erase Every doubt, every fear, even the tears That find their way to our spirits Destined to bring feelings of despair Yet, there is no darkness that can Overwhelm our love and our sincere prayers!
