Witness Of God
Current mood: animated
Category: Life
Was not my eyes open

when you touch that man who was

determined to show his hurt

through the hate

wanted to destroy

but you stopped him gently
by filling his darkness with light
loving him through the pain
Hate diisapated under your guidance

Instead of bashing the people he hated

He reach out helped to lift them up

Was not my ears uncloggedwhen you gave the words to

the womanwho was ready to give up

no longer able to stand under

the strain created by this world

Being Judge by those who claim superiority

struggling to feed her children

restoring her self esteem

Carrying all the pain from
the people who abandon her
left her looking for the love they wouldn't give

No longer feeling as worthy as the rest

you gave her the accpetance she needed
validated her struggle
covering her with Light
Of your compassion, love , Joy

teaching the way to find love

Giving her the words to carry on

becoming strong

setting the examples for all to see

giving her the resources to find a better way

through you

all is considered valuable

You unclogged my ears

with the words you gave her

to heal heart which had been crushed

Was not my spirit released from its capitivity

by your unselfishness

forgiving all the wrongs I had committed

to allowed me entrance

back into my Fathers presence

releasing my spiritto shared the Good news
with other lost souls

to see the Glory of You

being reveled through the new believers

Was not my heart soften

when you send the Holy Spirit

to fill me with knowledge

of this great love you shared

with all who accepted you

taking our pain

Patiently without judging us

guiding us closer to your love

the only way to life

teaching how to love each other

accepting one another

not only because you say so

but to expressed the ultimate love

you continue to reveal to us

accepting everyone for who they are

changing us from within

so we can be open foryour light to shine through

revealing the things which open the eyes

unclogs the ears

releases the spirit

softens the heart

only to be a witness to

Your grand Merciful loving way

Being a Witness to God

no honor ever could be greater
