Declared With Gladness

I weep
I’m a child of the Mighty
For reasons best known above
A beggar I came
To His holy name
So wondrous in truth and love.
I sing
As I share in a family
Who saw threatening seas divide
And marched through the sand
To lush promised land
Where other folk stepped aside.
I gasp
As I follow a captive
Who did nothing more than bless
The thorns and the jail
The lash and the nail
Men hating His righteousness.
I wait
And its all for His answers
The King of my heart must arrive
He fashions a place
Beyond time and space
Where ransomed souls laugh and thrive.
I stand
And proclaim hope to others
Who know not their root or end
While Christ holds the key
To set them all free
And smile as their dearest Friend.
