Most Marvelous NameA Poem by Doug BlairA sword of division
Say the Name
And watch waters Part before you. On the one side Smiling faces Touched by grace. On the other Clear discomfort, Cold suspicion. And a charge That you are clearly Out of place. Say the Name And the demons Look for cover; And a shaft of Light invades Where darkness reigned. And a glimpse of Hope uplifts The weary sufferer. Rest and rescue, Timeless Gospel Still the same. Say the Name And a cloud of Watchers hovers closer. Those who fought And felt the cut Of unbelief. Smiling now in Halls of Glory With their Saviour. Praising “Jesus” And forgetting All their grief. © 2012 Doug Blair |
