Ever After

Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)



Open in the heavens,
Delight,
Cheerful rays,
Giving trays.
A light,
A shining star,
Jesus lights from afar,
Feeding the hungry,
Seeding the grumpy,
With love,
With wonders and awe.
Jesus reflects all we saw,
Our souls with woes,
Our pains like stains.
Jesus in us
Cleans our souls,
All our woes,
Even the pains and stains,
Ever after,
Delightful laughter.
