We All Stand
(“God is our shelter and
our strength. When troubles seem near, God is nearer, and He’s ready to
help.” Psalm 46:1)
The clouds hung like
sheets in the wind,
while we craved what we never won;
oceans spin out of control while the earth bucks and bends
gravitation its way and then,
someone discovers the exception to the rule
while we craved what we never won;
oceans spin out of control while the earth bucks and bends
gravitation its way and then,
someone discovers the exception to the rule
And we all stand up and
declare him the fool.
Lately the rain has
colored the pages,
secretly the chords made us young;
celestas ring like handheld bells while chimes draw and call
crowds aloud and pedestrians crawl,someone composes a score upon cluttered rhythms and tones
secretly the chords made us young;
celestas ring like handheld bells while chimes draw and call
crowds aloud and pedestrians crawl,someone composes a score upon cluttered rhythms and tones
And we all stand up to
answer the phone.
The gentle are strong,
sun or gloom,
while the cruel waste their breath and tongue;
lectures lock us imprisoned and letters turn the key
from the outside, to keep us in:
somewhere one voice ends the wrath; “forgive” trumpets grace first to last
while the cruel waste their breath and tongue;
lectures lock us imprisoned and letters turn the key
from the outside, to keep us in:
somewhere one voice ends the wrath; “forgive” trumpets grace first to last
And we still stand up to
measure the past.
