Day comes before the night
Night before the day
Each has it’s turn to dance
Before they go away
Darkness reaps as in a trance
Before succumbing to the light
Dawn exposes the wrongs
That Jesus would make right
Daily heeding the coming day
The blackness recedes
And backs away
Time must fulfill its alloted needs
As it searches on and on
Reaping the whirlwind
Then is gone
Shadows linger upon the mortal’s face
Coldness holds on to the heart
In it’s unholy embrace
Darkness again makes a call
From it’s lonely, hopeless place
Must not listen or we will fall
Oh do not heed this bequiling voice
Make the Light of God your chosen way
Repentance should be the only choice
For therein lives the hope of day
Within all the human race
Yes the Light has birthed and Spirit borne
The Father’s enduring grace.
