Most Marvelous Name

Most Marvelous Name

A Poem by Doug Blair
"

A 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.
