SMOKE IN THE EYES

Upon a dream a tear fell

A dream of life and light

But what has now a child to tell

Through smoke impeded sight

As clouds of smoke caressed each thought

As light bowed down its face

What could reveal the true report?

Behind its mask of lace

Could beauty fill his aching heart?

Could love caress his soul?

Could Heaven joy this child impart?

Could ever peace, make whole?

As tears embraced what God would share

Pictures impaired through cloud

Fading the world beyond all care

Through silence’ foreboding shroud

Great tears cascaded to the earth

As smoke spiraled free

The Light of God brought second birth

Through faith on bended knee

The child embraced Christ’s wondrous light

Dismissed the smoky gloom

Despair had lost to joy the fight

Once love had filled the room

Love’s joyous song rang loud and clear

God’s light reigned firm and true

The child now free of worldly fear

Revealed his eyes of blue

Now shining bright through grace and love

Through gratitude and joy

Gazing through faith to Christ above

Stands now a brand new boy.

IN SEARCH OF LOVE

Whilst wandering blind, with heart of stone

Through clouds of deep despair

No love was found to call my own

My burden none would share

In search, I came to Zion hill

I browsed God’s holy mound

I know it was the Father’s will

That I in Christ be found

By grace I sat at Jesus’ feet

Upon His arm I’d lean

Like Ruth amidst the golden wheat

I’d sought God’s love to glean

For love I’d wandered far and wide

With torn and aching heart

Now with His Flame that burns inside

Christ vowed He’d never part

For me! Life’s Light came down to die

Full God yet flesh and blood

He gave to me what none can buy

Beneath that cross of wood

His cup is mine to drink at will

His Spirit and His Flame

He said for me to drink my fill

To purge my filth and shame

Today I smile where once I cried

Such joy and peace I’ve found

My Jesus wants me join His bride

And live on hallowed ground

God called before my mother’s womb

Before the dawn of life

I’m saved by grace from endless gloom

To be my Saviour’s wife.
