612. I Meet With God Daily

I meet with God daily,

And He speaks with me;

And I sit and listen,

In His realm of eternity.

In His tongue He teaches,

And my soul, it reaches;

Through the firmament,

His Light beseeches.

He calls me His child,

And we lie reconciled,

From the darks’ distortions,

Which oft’ kept me exiled.

He breathes into me,

His Light, heavenly,

And I rest breathlessly,

In momentary ecstasy.

Yes, daily we meet,

At dawn, noon, and dusk greet;

And I kneel gently,

In veneration at His feet.

For nothing can compare,

To His golden, piercing stare,

Which reignites the soul,

For in its Light, He’s always there.

I meet with God daily,

Far from this worlds harms,

Where hope and love is found,

In His embracing arms.

611. Extant

Why are you screaming little one, little one?

Why are you hiding in the dark? Come. Come.

He can not hurt you…not anymore, not anymore.

The world left you for dead,

But God opened a door.

Why are you crying little one, little one?

Why are you huddled in the dark? Come. Come.

Time has passed by and the sun has arose…has arose.

The world left you for dead,

Yet the Light only grows!

Why are you frozen little one, little one?

Why are you standing in the dark? Come. Come.

Close your eyes, take a step, look and then see…look and see,

The world left you for dead,

Though you live eternally!
