Ripple on the water Streak across the sky Solid weight of Glory Thereafter in mind’s eye Along the mystic chords A glimpse of fleeting grace How I long to see My loving Savior’s face.

The Place Where Glory Dwells
Do you know the place
where Glory dwells?
Can you help me find
the way?
Look for
a holy hill
But know
Only the righteous
there may stand
before the One
Who sees
Can I muster
the substance
to stand
in His sight
and
in His light
to see light?
Only if He aids me.

beauty comes
why is it
when we see
a picture
perfect sky
something deep
within us
says that
that is beauty
it pulls
us outside
ourselves
and engenders
a longing
for more
when angels
herald
the birth
foretold
and glory
fills the skies
would we see
beauty otherwise
without eyes born new
He will have
no form
to attract you

Temple Stones
We then
May not boast
We are in by grace
And grace alone
Through
No effort of our own.
Rough undressed stones
Wrenched from the quarry
Wholly imperfect.
Yet we shall not thus remain
But another perfection attain
And not by our own volition
Shall we be fitted for addition
Onto the eternal Temple.
Even then
In days of long gone by
And far from Mount Sion
Hammer and chisel
Noised their will
After measured twice
Before taken to Mount Sion
And there builded up
To contain the holy glory.
Thus He does use
The hammer of hardship
And the chisel of trials
Here below
To shape and fit us
To behold the holy glory
There above
Forever.

The Seen and the Unseen
The seen and the unseen
Age old struggle of faith
The corporeal clouds our vision
While prophets make the unseen seen.
You say
Seek My face
Your face, oh Lord
I will seek
In the place where Your
Glory dwells.
