night watch

In the watches of the night Sometimes a sweetness comes Whispering, calling, nudging our heart. Rolling over in our might A contented smile on our gums Sleepy, lazy, reluctance on our part. Till a fragrance from the Heights Sets our soul and feet to run Turning to willingly step apart. His Word fills us with sound and sight A revelation of His Son To send His Light into the dark. It's there our spirit knows His Light Like musical notes set to fun We dance to worship in His art. The prayers are lifted as in flight To us then back to where begun Like fiery arrows, sure and sharp. As the dawn comes fully bright May we trust in what's to come Resting joyfully within God's heart.
