Sweet, sweet Heart
Oh sweet heart of mine
Your hard shell designed to protect
Sweet, sweet heart
Your dear sacrifice understood.
It is time now
To break open in full praise
To sing the blessings of love
Long held at bay.
It is time now at long last
To let down the walls
To crack over the brittle barrier
To bow in sweet awe
At God’s pleasure
To smile in wonderment
At the mind’s attempt
To hold such grace
At a distance.
Yet, what success?
No further than a heart beat
No…closer
So close that it defies any concept
Of distance at all.
The precious gift
What a precious gift this life!
Time to learn
The true meaning
Of Love!
Time to hold
Our lover close
And feel the beating of a heart.
Time to see
All our fears and dreams
In the eyes of the lover.
If we look close
Very close
To see our own face
Shining back at us
Through the lover’s smile!
To experience Oneness
As only multiplicity can.
What a precious gift
To move from God to life
And back home to God again!
