When world recedes only high trust proceeds
Gathering, gleaning all forward with lead.
Called from the Altar of worship that sings
Praise of the Faithful, of the One named Our King.
Our leanings may shatter, a day may bewilder,
Hours, even minutes can steal the familiar.
Here is the opening, there is the door.
Wondrous moment casts us to the fore.
Holy instant born, drawn near to the crux.
Opportune can soak with Grace in such flux.
Herein we enter the highest thrones gaze,
With Marvel, heart’s awe and the deepest of praise.
