Glory

Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)



His glory goes on forever,
Has no beginning, has no end.

Kind of blows my mind,  to be thought of as a friend.

I don't know all the secrets, but can see the lies.

News of their destruction will come of no surprise.

What unfolds,
No man knows.
If they do their telling lies.

For those who watch carefully,
Will see with their own eyes.

To those who navigate through the great unknown,
May you find His place of rest,
A place that calls you home.
