Time
There was a time when I dreamed huge dreams
Felt the presence of a mysterious urgency
To reach beyond the past and into the present
Embrace each moment with a sense of hopefulness
Assured that there will be more joy to treasure
~
The clock was ticking on, endlessly judging me
With a desire to right the wrongs that had been
Whispering echoes of defeat and cheerless fears
Never truly seeing the confidence I had to believe
The poise that I felt within when I looked to heaven
~
There was the assurance of those hopes eternal
Keeping me filled with an elated desire for the future
And those things that are more than here and now
But go beyond today into the infinite faith that is
Alive, dancing across the spirit with a promise of forever
~
With these wise and secure feelings for the imminent
Reveries of anticipation sent me exhaling intimacy
Echoing prayers of breathlessness that helped me see
With God, all things are possible and probable ~ Any dream
Is there to be believed, treasured and realized, trusted to be!
