IN THE CUSTODY OF HOPE

IN THE CUSTODY OF HIS HOPE

The common denominator of human life

Rode his pale horse past our house today;

And our lessened numbers paid the price—

God had chosen—His will had been sent our way.

Grief, the child of love, came and prayed with us;

With shared emotions, we gathered in the relief of peace;

Consoled souls sang songs praising our friend, Jesus;

His loving care and glorious wonders never cease.

Our grief having had its appointed moment, we recalled

A childhood prayer that was once nightly prayed by us all:

“Now I lay me down to sleep; I pray the Lord, my soul to keep;

And if I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord, my soul to take.”

Tomorrow we will light candle flames of hope in a glorious resurrection;

Despite detours along the way, we never lost sight of God’s revelation!
