More Than Words

Hope is just a page away Within your living word My eyes absorb your counsel In each line, your voice is heard The breath of life to every soul I hold in earthly hand I learn of prophets and of kings And of Salvation’s plan Written by the hand of God My source of daily bread Illustrated by God’s son When for my sins, He bled Let every word leap from the page Into my heart of clay That I may hide each one within And find you, day by day

Whoa, this is masterful. I loved the flow of it right to the end. God's gifts flow right through you and onto the page. It took a lot of years of happiness and struggles to gain the knowledge you are pulling from. God knew what he was putting you through, in your daily challenges. Your gifts are for this time and for this time only, so use them as much as possible. Your work is beautifully stunning...Raul
