Fullness of time

As this morning breaks anew,
grasses covered in fresh dew,
birds are singing in the trees,
blooms are budding ‘tween the leaves.

My eyes rest on this splendour
as I think of my Deliverer,
and of Him coming on a cloud
to gather His beloved crowd.

Will that morning break like this,
filled with joy and peaceful bliss,
or will the storm clouds gather low
to bring the One that all should know?

Be it morning, noon, or night,
I would not wish to miss the sight
when God returns in His full might
to set the wrongs back to right.

I’ll meet Him up there in the sky
and join in the triumphant cry.
Of what awaits I’m ignorant,
I only know He is magnificent.

So, as morning breaks anew,
with grass covered in fresh dew,
I know the task that lies ahead;
I’ll speak life to those who are still dead.
