When Love stands forward
It reaches. It is bold.
Love asks the giver
To release all that could fold…
Our strength is in weakening
All the doors, walls and holds,
Decades; lives of knowing,
Hearts that hide on thresholds.
We can be Love walking,
On the steps of grace born…
Open to seeing,
Life with hearts sworn.
Winding together
With quests that swell out…
Humbled, encouraged,
Emboldened hearts shout.
Love stand us forward,
Let Love walk here.
Teach our hearts aching,
To pull Your Life Near.
We can be Love walking
a tribe that climbs high…
Humbled, encouraged
Enthroned by God’s cry.
