Daylight has Begun

Old Saints of the past
Trapped in these stained glass windows
Vibrancy of life
Contained in simple leaded glass
Could it be? Such a thing?

Old hymns of freedom
Trapped in these beautiful words
Vibrancy of life
Contained in simple pen and ink
Could it be? Such a thing?

Come Alive and sing what they use to sing
Sing the songs we will sing in the eternal cities
Melodies of the slums of a world reborn

Can mere things contain revivals of the past
The unbreakable light waiting to break through this frame
Daylight has begun

I doubt such a thing, the breaking light of God’s means

Young eyes of hope
Trapped in this little soul
Vibrancy of life
Contained in simple words and speech
Could it be? Such a thing?

Can mere things contain revivals of the past
The unbreakable light waiting to break through this frame

Daylight has begun

To His Glory Alone,
JG
