THERE ARE TIMES WHEN TRULY IT FEELS

 

THERE ARE TIMES WHEN TRULY IT FEELS

There are times when truly it feels

Like you resurrect us every day

And what the day began in anguish

You finish in joy

To you, o Christ

What can we bring

What offering for this

That in the desert times

You still Spring Forth

Covering the skeletal lands

With fresh unaccountable flowers.

Lifting us up to drink the honeyed waters

Clasping our hands.
