Holy Spirit: Our Advocate
In the years past
There’s something lost
That love between us missing
Like drifting shadows
With days gone by
An emptiness lies within
When the clock turns back
In the books we see
Only clear pages remain
A cold stone love
But no-one knew
The other was softly crying
And still I cry
As I ponder these thoughts
But now they rest on empty shelves
For life was simple
And there was no love
So rests this idle strife
But now come closer
Let me see the real you
That has wanted to show all along
From under your facade
And shadows fade
You’re becoming as a sweet perfume
Stone bricks crumble
And they lay
But the real foundation remains
An artists touch
“Completed !” he says
And now it is
Now the real living is down where
The need remains and is
The rubble removed
And beautiful it stands there
Now capable of greater things
Certainly this beauty must remain
As a captured moment
Free from
The workings of the past
