Take Heart



"I am sure of this, that He who started a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus."

 

~Philippian 1:6

 

Take heart, you mourning soul

Sorrow shattering your light

Oh, what, what can I say to make you whole?

Come sit on this hill and watch the coming night 

 

See the stars? They are a bridge

Between your heart and God’s

And those who bravely tread the ridge

Of this earthly measuring rod 

Dear heart, look to the fields

Washing to the glowing canvas

Yet, no pain is too small to be healed

By the Great Physician at last 

We sit upon a giant land

And feel as small

As a grain of silent sand

Lost in the ocean’s thrall 

But didn’t you know? You are

A pearl in the making…

Precious as a far off star

Wholeness woven from your breaking
