His world divided - Spirit from Flesh
So who built this wall of separation?
The veil has been torn - Access granted
We stand in line pretending to wait for Him
Too afraid to admit we like this side
The other side is too real - more of Him
But we like US more than we like Him
We have mastered eschatological flattery
Do we really fool Him or simply anesthetize our souls?
His eyes are peircing - but never harsh
His sword severs completely - but never to kill
His heart is for oneness - but never isolation
So why then do we pretend to wait in line?
Who will go first - who will cross over?
Prophets and Poets have seen it - they speak and they sing
But our ears are so numb
Holy fragrance drifts through the air
Our very names are whispered on wind chimes
And still we stand - pretending to be in line
Inclusion has been purchased and yet we stand worlds apart
Holy Spirit come - guide us through the labyrinth of our thoughts
Grace grant us the courage to cross over
Standing face to face - spirit to spirit
Beyond the veil of our own making
Peace and Wholeness everlasting.
