In The Arms of Grace
Somewhere,
in the day that tomorrow brings,
I see you smiling.
Your eyes are sparkling with the dances
that light in a new horizon.
You are gathering,
swelling, like waters that fill into rivers
that pour Love into view,
You are new.
Somewhere,
in the day that tomorrow brings
I see you healed,
your sweetened heart revealed.
In an eternal embrace,
you are in the arms of grace.
There you are
in the dawn
that rises up to meet you,
wrapped by tender mercies
and a blanket of prayers.
There.
Entwined, encouraged, and seen.
You are with each good thing.
You are inside of hope’s dream.
There. I see you.
There you are,
dear beloveds
not a far smile away,
waking in the Promise of a bold new Day.
