Foretaste...

 Hymn of Heaven- Phil Wickham

I was introduced to the above song last night.

While we long for Heaven we delight in its foretastes...

hymns like the one above or

such as the heavens declared the past two mornings!

Yesterday...

Daybreak kindles expectation

Draws ajar starred crepuscule

Floats above unbound creation

Flaming frays of gauze and tulle

God’s hand ruffles welkin tresses

Lowers a translucent scrim

To showcase His masterpieces

Earth and heavens exalt Him

Wonder exceeds explication

Praise and worship interlace

For the Author of creation

And the glory of His grace/face

Daybreak, like a boundless ocean

Rushes over eastward shores

Delight turns into devotion

Mercy has not barred its doors

Daybreak ushers in fresh favor

Faithful hands tip love’s pure grail

Bidding us once more to savor

Promises that will not fail

Today...just now

(after gorgeous Sailors/driver's-take-warning skies; freezing rain/sleet has started)

Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer,
And He who formed you from the womb:
“I am the Lord, who makes all things,
Who stretches out the heavens [c]all alone,
Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself;

Isa.44:24
