Have you ever
Talked
To the Author of language?
Listened
To the One
Whose hands
Made your ear?
Seen the face
Of the One who sees
Your innermost parts
And loves you still?
Oh what a gift
From the Giver
To have a conversation
With the Creator!
Have you ever
Heard
From the One whose voice
Roared through the silence
Reverberated
In the darkness
Bounced off
The nothingness
Echoed
Through the Garden
And through the prophets
Through the Word
Made flesh
Through the Spirit
As He groans?
Oh what a gift
From the Giver
To have a conversation
With the Creator!
So lift
Your drooping hands
And strengthen
Your weak knees
Fear not
For I am with you
I will never leave you
Nor forsake you
I will walk among you
I will be your God
And you shall be my people
Oh what a gift
From the Giver
To have a conversation
With the Creator!
