RETURN TO SHILOAH
What were you expecting
Upon my sudden return
The sky to split open
The mountains to move
Or maybe a rescue mission
Where pride is enthroned as
....good, BENEVOLENT, a rewarder of the diligent seeker
What was I expecting
On my sudden return
A parade of the deceived
Announcing my TRUTH
Or maybe a public apology
Where pride is humbled as
...forgiven, accepted, deeply LOVED
Since time is gone
Eternity is ever yielding
No matter can follow LOVE
Into OAKLAND, where
TRUTH in WORD stands
Declaring HISglory
...and hisSTORY is void, no relevant meaning, vapor in the wind
