Adoption

Heaven would be ours
should we know our powers,
for heaven is within
and to the Lord we're kin
if we take His name,
let His adoption claim
change the name we hold
into His like and mold.

Heartbeat

There's a song in my heart
O the mercies I chart
In the soul of my God
In the depths of His love

When anxiety frays
My peace and it sways
My soul from its course
I command, Light, come forth!

For the power of Christ
Is the song of my life
It is pounding in me
The true heartbeat of me

Another word for

Technical difficulties
Is another word
For universe having a laugh

under the bridge

there's water under the bridge
it's gone, long gone, by now
but there's a channel in the earth
of our history and a bridge

dawn echo

echoing into the darkness
shines the light
open my eyes to brightness
newness of sight
shake out my newborn wings
and rise in flight

Burning Bridges

Yesterday, a bridge
Today, the ashy water
Pours out of my mouth
Like a mighty river

Feathers

Two broken wings
Taped together
Maybe we can't fly
We keep each other warm
