Our soul waits for the LORD,
he is our help and shield. – Ps 33:20
my soul has been waiting
wandering and waiting
vacillating and listless
alive but lifeless
when all else fails
i retreat further inside
where you are waiting
my light and salvation
then you remind me
the spark of my spirit
ignited but forgotten
given for eternity
and rejoicing renews
when the reunion begins
heaven and earth
and soul and spirit
