As long as God ordains the sky
With light, my love, then you and I
Must fight the fight; we dare not quit
Until our Master orders it
For soon the night returns to sweep
The roof of earth with starry deep
And this is Time; it paints the sod
With stepping stones that lead to God
The morning like a bloom unfolds
Breaking through dark in pink-rose- golds
What this day holds; only God knows
Some doors fling wide; some curtains close
…and we who live above the grave
Should do our best with what we have
While light of day and grace implore
On thresholds to...
Forevermore
