June 1985

 

distant

the thunder sounds

            to echo in our minds

 

pausing beneath

in silence

sadness

like a blanket

covers us all

here

standing on the edge

trying so hard

to understand

why?

 

 

oh Lord

in our darkest hour

your love comes through

once more

once more

is your promise given

by your servant

by your hand

 

 

today!

you shall be with me

in paradise

 

At the coronation service of Dick DeMoor.

Scripture from Luke 23:43.
