Joyful Tears – v2

Tears of joy
welled up
in his heart
spilled down his cheeks
in the pew again
falling

Frozen Yankee stoicism
melted by the telling
the knowing
of Your Word
Your Love

Safe telling of
ancient stories
of faith, or hope
of love
for all of us

Understood better
study and communion
Learning together
deeper meanings
in His time
and our own.
