Sarah at the Grammies
she won last night for her song “Building a Mystery” with that odd little line “and a cross from a faith evoking images of mighty empires long since laid to rest upon forgotten kings buried deep in dust of time leaving only scattered traces the merest ghost of their glory, gone
as if age, somehow inherited supremacy
and if supreme why dead
but He can play her game for He made the ground upon which those faithful stood and fell the very air of their breath His gift
if age, somehow inherits supremacy He is supreme in and of Himself
and lives!
He’s been here all along before, during, and after those forgotten realms that predate His body but not His life
He is long times before time began the target of all our faiths to oppose or to adore unchanging He remains the Lord
He is mystery greater than all our dreams sufficient for all our hopes
A revision of one written after Sarah McLachlan won a Grammy for her song “Building a Mystery” February 26, 1998
