Refinery For every truth I’ve sought, and found I then discerned more lies around; For every grace I got from God, Received a scourging with His rod. For love, and friends, and company, Night vigils, fasts, and agony. For coming closer to the Light, My sins exposed upon the height; Once mere clay, and sod, and mold, Now glitter precious flecks of gold. JVB Orlando, FL 1994
