I Wish

I wish… That hearts were always open To the hope and love and prayers Lifted up to heaven… calling on His miracles His marvels and wonders, the joy That dances through the ones who know He is light – He is love – He is the answer To every doubt, every prayer, every dream He is the reason that I’m breathing He is the reason that I can believe His grace gives me wisdom His mercy gives me strength His favor gives me the victory So that I can always find solutions I wish… That souls were willing to listen To the tenderness, the affection The joy that delights in His gifts of the spirit Wonderful lights, like stars in the night… Twinkling with joy, imagination and inspiration Freeing souls from the darkness, the shadows That fall across spirits who don’t believe In the brilliant rays of His truth, His grace Pouring out joy, serenity and contentment Into the ones who trust in His gift The Son who brought light to a dark world The Son who lifted hearts from the dirt To shine like the morning sun, the Son Who knows that love is the greatest gift of all I wish… Everyone could feel the love that He brings To those who will listen to His gentle whispers His still, small voice… assuring hearts and souls That His blood is liquid hope, poured out so we know He brings freedom to those who are imprisoned He brings victory to those who were failing He brings peace to those who were anxious He brings light to those who were living in darkness He brings God into hearts who were once hard! I wish…. His love, His spirit, would fill you… …through and through! If only my wish would come true Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Anoucheka Gangabissoon May 30. 2022
