Another Night

It is another night when the moon is bright
There was a time when I could sit and marvel at the wonder of it
Singing carefree songs of childhood
That time is no more

For I have learned …
Unspeakable things accompany its presence
Innocence lost
Lives scarred by evil’s snare
Searching for the One who can set them free
Yet coerced to return by twisted truth -
Lies

Now as I look upon that giant orb
My heart is filled with sadness
As I pray to the Holy One of Israel
Trusting
That He will reach down to those who search
Bringing
Truth to those who are blinded
Comfort to those who mourn
Healing to those afflicted
Bringing His Salvation
