Until Then
Dear Lord, while we are still down here, please be ever with us…until then.
The time will come when we will never sleep
and ‘You’ will encompass our every view…
where at every turn, we’ll be so aware
of Your love, audaciously…layering like dew.
The time will come when the very atmosphere
will swathe us in Your joyous delight…
as amid chords of praiseful songs
wings fluttering softly…take flight.
Time will come…Your perfect tranquility
will never take a reprieve…
in that promised lavish place
that will stand eternally…without trace of grieve.
But, until then, O God…
we beg You, keep us strong.
Until then, Yahweh…
let us not forget to whom we belong.
Until then, Father…
we implore Thee, please …hold us tight…
‘til…our souls know no more darkness
and our days know no more night.
Carry us over the raging floods of rancor
be the hope…we so often discard.
Secure us through this hard life with anchor
Lord, be the assurance we sometimes dodge.
Renew our battered faith...
be that…peace…we do not comprehend...
cheer us on as we run this race, please…Dear Jesus…!
Be e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g we need…Until Then.
