Holy Spirit

VISITOR FROM HEAVEN

You were there
I saw you even if many others did not
You were there
I saw you even if even my eyes did not
You were there
I saw you.

I saw you in the swelling of my heart
In the paths that my thoughts did chart
I saw you, for they were thoughts of thee.
Thoughts of all those things which Thou art
The origin, the beginning, the head, the start
I saw you in my sensing of eternity.

EASTER

~ Che ~ Leave a comment 
Tear the woods open wide
It is a painting windowed in our dream
Spear not the canvas to the side
The blood waters a never-ending stream
That will move mountains on Sunday
And roll a rock downhill
Into the valley of time we chime Monday
Death is dead. Peace, be still
The innocent should never be crucified
While the guilty die on their pen
Never was indignity this undignified
Justice thus unjustified by unmanly men
The innocent will rise again
Broken the frame of your crown of lies
Sunrays that fall like drops of rain
A Spirit is born when a man dies.
