And The Crowd Goes Wild

Sum of a Year

Wink-blink

Ope-close

Here it is

And there it goes!

Like mist that melts from morning’s verge

Like airborne-tides that ebb and surge

From dawn to dusk dust leaves its mark

Like sparks that spiral on the dark

As expectation’s hopeful cheer

Reflects upon a soldered year

Of heaven-tendered highs and lows

From its first scene to curtain close

The crowd goes wild, stands to applaud

The unwavering grace of God

Eyes fixed upon a mystic Door

Where nobody has been before

Where faith, not fear will be our Guide

For Love Unfailing will preside

Hallelujah.

Amen

Happy Last-day-of-2018!

a tender look back on what has been

 As humble hope hails Majesty

From a highway hinged to eternity

All cupped in the Ever-Able Hands

Of He who pours and snuffs time's sands 

 Jude 1:21
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
