Children of Light - Poem


Children of Light

Heavenly beings of light and truth
Born of Father of Lights, Omnipotent
To earth, tangible form and function bestowed
On each untried divinity in embryo

And as breath blowing gently upon glowing embers
Gives birth to brighter flames
So the Lord’s gentle whisper
Coaxes spiritual flames of light to flicker
With remembrance of the realm of brilliance
From which children of light first came

Perfect love redeems and hearts penetrate
Illuminating with unspeakable joy
Those who choose to follow him
Back into bright eternal glory
