this may surprise
you
who know me louder
words falling free
I close my eyes
to look through His
shut my ears to hear
Often expectation comes
with shouts and cheers
impatient applause
to call forth
that which we await
This year the quiet
is a choice
expecting in stillness
His coming
His living
His dying
His coming again
In the silence
the space between breaths
I worship
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty—the one who always was, who is, and who is still to come Revelation 4:8b New Living Translation
