translucent leaves


after the snowfall, melt,
phantoms of autumn
translucent leaves
in the wet spring woods

translucent leaves
almost transparent
clinging to the branches
before the buds burst

a word of hope

a word of hope
to raise up the morning
to offer peace
in the midst of dis-ease

a word of hope
light in this darkness
to put oil on the waters
calm in the storms

tear down the walls

tear down the walls
our self-made prisons
seeing only ourselves
not God's perfect vision

tear down the walls
barriers to our futures
believe in the promise
of our risen Lord and Savior

open the doors of our prisons

self-made walls
higher and higher
fear, paralysis
stifling dreams

open the doors of our prisons
tear down the walls
chart a way forward
to abundance untold

gather the other sheep


light, love, a future
a good, good shepherd
offering love
to the sheep, the others

gather the other sheep
those who are still lost

enter into the gate
increase His kingdom, His flock
follow the way of the Savior
the Son of our Father
oh gather the other sheep
to the ends of the earth
