When you were young and innocent

In faith as a child with no evidence

Sunshine was God smiling fluorescent

Flowers were itty angels in laughing plants

You and God, you knew what it meant

Your faith was happy and resilient

Remember, hope was no guess

You trusted God with all you possess

Long ago you felt sweetly blessed

And now you fondly reminisce

What would it mean to see the sun rest

Behind an array of color, and perfectly encompass  

A rainbow’s message of love to you, so infectious

Bring memories of his tenderness in shades effervesce

Birds chime in a melody for you too, again to confess

God’s beautiful peace in a message like this

Whose motive dares to show

Would this be for what you do

or do not know

Is yours for love of truth to know

A life to give a love to grow

Or is it to ingest the flow

To reaffirm what you believe is so

Does your soul desire to give more

Is your faith alive in its core

Is compassion knocking at your door

Or is it you that you’re looking for

Honest as the day is bright

Your soul, I wish to share insight

To me, a love for your own light

A gift from God, from his delight

I hope therein a fire to light

With this our passion we ignite

An ocean wall in high tides rage

Over dry earth there leaves no shade

There is no time for study to engage

Assuming everything it isn’t, will fade

Taking all forms in every grade

A power the mind of the universe made

No mortal man can barricade

Every army; a masquerade

This, his power will invade

If his love is taken as a renegade

Refused to honor; no respect obeyed

Meet the master in his wage

In time God will ultimately persuade

If not for faith in God, I would not see the things I do

I believe the spirit of hope is here right now, to renew

God’s love pierces my heart and changes my limited view

Gives me an answer to sustain my trust in only one truth

I rely in one God of Light and live for me and you

Unmask our judgment that we may see your helping grace

Open our hearts to feel the intimacy of your close embrace

Quicken our spirits; this true relationship love experience

 To take heart; to give you our solemn response in assurance

We recognize our past impoverished mindsets incredulous

Within your presence we overcome our human negligence

We accept your comprehensive power to lead and guide us

Your amazing unseen presence, an obvious precedence

In love and unity, we receive your confidence is ingenious    

Our conscious awareness in our faith forms your diligence

We trust your help to show us how to convey this silent peace
