With All His Heart

Arise now, stand strong and healed Safely home, never to depart Welcomed to the broad and spacious field Of His expansive love — filling all your heart. Come now, made whole and see With your own eyes the One — The Poet who speaks words into reality Whose mercy shines as morning sun. With all His heart, he welcomes you, Whispering loving words to all your fear; His salvation searches, washes, makes you new As He kindly, gently wipes away every last tear. And taking your hand, "Little one, awaken in my light What was imagined in thy heart, is now given in thy sight."
