Damp night gives way
To cool, crisp, clear, clear morning.
Sunlight reflects off every surface
Magnifying the brightness of all the world
Beyond the visible spectrum,
Till it seems everything is glowing with You.
You blanket my existence with Your presence,
So I cannot NOT know You.
You are the Light of the world, Jesus!
Help me recognize You,
Even through my darkest nights
When I weep with the burden of
Not being, yet, all that You call me to be.
Thank You, Lord,
For lifting me out of the pit once more,
Setting my feet on solid rock,
Drying my tears, and
Comforting my soul with the brilliant revelation,
Again, that You love me.
