Light of dismayed World

For eyes that see

God’s Love which hung

On Calvary’s tree…

But Jesus rose, He lives

To blast chains–call souls free…

He reserved my place

At Heaven’s table

In blessed Eternity

His Light burns deep

Deep within, that I

Might shine His Hope

To others ’round me–near

And far across the seas…

Those with fading, waiting

Hearts, needing only a spark

To see–but it’s really not

‘All about me’–

Jesus’ love is bigger, greatest

Mankind will ever meet

Though His face is hid

In those we nod to, pass

On any ordinary street

He touches, loves everyone

Brings His Light to lives

Turned dim by burdens

Sorrows which can’t be

Borne anymore–

He restores what’s

Lost, having paid the cost

Today, He still heals and

Feeds multitudes…

Please don’t hear this

As platitude

Just because there’s

Paucity of Good News

Even now He’s rescuing

 Lifting someone up…

I know, because often

He’s lifted me ~ loves and

Unveils more Light to see

LIGHT

But the path of the just (righteous) is like the light of dawn, That shines brighter and brighter until [it reaches its full strength and glory in] the perfect day. Proverbs 4:18, AMP

Once more Jesus addressed the crowd. He said, “I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” John 8:12, AMP

LOVE

No one has greater love [nor stronger commitment] than to lay down his own life for his friends. John 19:15, AMP

and walk continually in love [that is, value one another—practice empathy and compassion, unselfishly seeking the best for others], just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God [slain for you, so that it became] a sweet fragrance. Ephesians 5:2
