A PLACE IN THE SUN

When darkness hangs over the soul,
God’s spirit can lift as an eagle’s flight
to see one’s place in the sun,
be lifted on feathers of His love,
soar on the praises for His boundless grace.

By faith one rises on the breath of His voice
as He brings a sunrise of hope to one’s life,
higher and higher ascending towards His light,
feeling so weightless of any stress.

It is an air that doubt will never inhale as joy,
which skeptics can not know,
when peace from Heaven’s throne
shines its everlasting rays upon a believer’s wings.

What in the morn to eyes lacking vision for eternity
is viewed as a mere brilliant splendor
unto orbs who can see a divine source
for the daystar’s burning flame,
they sight becomes the illumination for inspiration,
warming and giving such enduring strength
during times night clings to the heart.
