Spiritual:Walking With Jesus

If I cannot understand MAN
there is somebody who can
A heart,he wears on his sleeve
Give him your hand when you are ready to receive
WALKING WITH JESUS and ready to be done
Partake from his blood
many battles fought and nearly won
Non-believers mock the smile of the son

Once more and often,
the tide of the ocean
crashes upon the rocks
upsetting gentle emotion
He strolls with his feet
accepting not a surrender
to bitter defeat

Calling to me
to walk with him in the park
His guiding light,
a'glowing in the dark
Not a facial crack
or stubborn weight upon his back

He says:MY SON,YOU CAN LEAVE BEHIND THESE WORDLY MEANS
TAKE HOLD OF THIS PALM AND WE CAN LEAP BEYOND MORTAL MACHINES
THY STRUGGLE IS OVER FOR YOU
THIS SPIRIT OF MINE WILL FOREVER STRENGTH ANEW

Speaking to me as we still wander
Pointing his finger to the sky with an exhaling breath
YOU HAVE NOT SEEN "TRUE LOVE" of my HEAVEN as yet
Glimpses of Time
Past and present
Appear and disappear
from weary eye

The brethren start to gather
our FEET stop to collect
Brothers,
sisters,
sons,
daughters,

They do not inquire of this man beside me
Many ones who still trust
become our dearest company

"we are family and why should fear come between
the closest of relations
it is no longer a FAIRY TALE dream"

His collection is not yet complete
We still stroll along the pathway
Shaking hands and inviting
The rich or the poor that we might meet
Many strangers to encounter and hold dear
As the procession expands
His innocent will no longer fear

ALL is quiet and the frontier continues
Jesus walks with us
even though his spirit softly fade
But,it shall be shown
by walking with Jesus
We are one step closer to HOME
