Child

What child am I to ponder this dark side?

Sitting in the pew hiding from his face

Wondering what I may see if I tried

My soul that is trapped in a state of grace

I tell myself.. to suppress my guilt felt

But his love is not abounded in one place

His mercy rings out as the angels belt

The beautiful melody heard in space

That will relieve the stress that makes me melt

Into a puddle of tears, but God’s race

On Earth where all living things he has dealt

Experiences his unchanging grace

What child am I to ponder our dark side?

When God’s love will be eternally wide…
