"Oh, Speak in the Night, Upon"

To delight in the Paradise
of Easter; it is the Lord's.

The Christ!

Alleluia!

Oh, speak in the night,
a conversation
of the spirit, a complaint, a plea.

It is the Lord's will, a renewal

For humankind. Celebrate in the fullness

Of living.

Do so in the Church at prayer,

Meditating on the day, ones failings,

Surprisesopening to God.

So one speaks, listens, waits

And lives in the knowledge of Easter,

Its seasonal presence. This divine gift.

So may we rest in thee, in aloneness.
We rest in thee, together our love in emotion and soul
binds us joyfully - thank you
for the morrow in the bringing
of the quickening spirit, a
millennium of blessings in color,
in shadow, in light, early morning.
There is God, our beloved He calls us.
