Piercing the Night

Rising Star

Ignite the night

Turn the dark to day

Hear the echoes 

of a thousand angels

Singing

“This is the way”

Come in a boy

A child

A lowly one

Born amongst the hay

Awake the day 

Preparing the way


Our souls 

So lost

to this and that

The hurry and the ‘go’

Falling into the traps

the world pushes us toward

How do we slow

Our breathing 

Our expectations

Our very desperate need

And lift our heads toward heaven

When often we can’t see

The light

Dimmed from all

the world tries to hide


Our hearts grow heavy

Yet, the burden 

can be light

If we know the yoke 

we carry

Isn’t ours

If we give it up

and let his shine


We might be on the brink 

of destruction

We might find

our hearts feel torn into

We feel pressed 

on all sides

Yet hope still

Comes through


The night

As the light

Pierces through…

“because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.””

Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭78‬-‭79‬ ‭NIV‬
