miles from home
with no lover of my own
i feel so alone
yet i know i'm not
because there is a God
who has never left me
He is the ultimate
Lover of my soul
my true Constant
in this ripple of chaos
and i want to feel
His arms around me
His touch surround me
i want to look into the eyes
of Him who made me
to feel His love embrace me
and i want to hug
the One who saved me
who endured my torturous stain
my punishment of pain
oh Lord! come again Quickly!
and receive me
to my heavenly home
the anticipation thrills me
and makes me wish
i was already there
able to touch the One who made me
to hug the One who saved me
and live eternally in that hug
- Chad M. Seybt
Too often these failed attempts
have caused great frustration,
but recently they are cause
for joyful revelation.
For through these rejections
of my expressed affections
I am being drawn
to my First Love again:
the One who made me,
the One who saved me,
the One who brought life
to my dead soul.
Further contemplation
reveals another revelation,
namely that I am already blessed,
for God already made a decision.
And if it is not she,
whom I think greater than rubies,
how much greater must the one be
whom the Lord has in store for me.
- Chad M. Seybt
