God Makes Everything New

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)

Although I cannot see the Son
I know that He’s still there
I call upon his name; He comes!
And meets me in the air

You take away my travel kit
For me there’s something better
I’m going home; there I won’t need!
A bag, a coat or sweater

They thought that they could harm me
Now they can’t put out the fire
It heats my house to keep me warm
It’s not this good for liars!
