You are the sweet fragrance of His memory

The passion of His longing

To be with His children in heaven

 

He is the Holy seed of your faith

Planted into the supreme arrogance

Of this self-absorbed, flesh-oriented world

To show them up

Instead of down

To electrify them with His eyes

Shine them on with His mercy

To plant and cultivate

God's loving Spirit and Word

Into their need to know the truth

So that when the time comes to rule

They will understand why you were chosen

To be God's kings and priests

 

 

John Christopher

1989

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
