Love Remained

archenoah-3008693_1920

All was beauty, all was song,
All was evil, all was wrong,
Destroyed, drowned, every town,
Love remained.

Altogether, all one tongue,
All confused, all tools hung,
Silenced, cursed, dispersed,
Love remained

All enslaved, all plagues come,
All rescued, Almighty won,
Complained, fed, cloud led,
Love remained.

All God’s people, all twelve tribes,
Altar of bronze, all the scribes,
Religion, pride, great divide,
Love remained.

Almighty comes, all angels sing,
Alleluia, all praise the King,
Despised, tried, denied,
Love remained.

All in sorrow, all the shame
All completed, all the pain,
Forsaken, crowned, renowned,
Love remained.

All astonished, all relieved,
All death conquered, all believe,
Risen, Lord, adored,
Love remained.

All have heard it, all made known,
All have seen Him, all below,
Returned, King, anthems ring,
Love remained.

All is beauty, all is song,
No more evil, no more wrong,
Renewed, changed, unstained,
Love remained.

Visions

michelangelo-abstract-boy-child-73805Visions are revealed,
All things on earth fade away,
The war is over,
And God’s voice resounds,
That He will now dwell with man,
Always, from this day.

Visions of glory,
Visions of the Holy,
Visions of the Holy One,
Author of Ages,
Reveals new pages,
Praise the Worthy Son.

Visions of a throne,
His justice swift and thorough,
The King is worshiped,
Death no longer lives,
In His new dwelling places,
There is no sorrow.

Visions of a home,
In a city without night,
Where joy never ends,
No need for sunshine,
No need for the moon to glow,
The Lord is our light.

So we praise,
We praise,
The Author of Always.
