Though I Stand Alone

Though I stand Alone

I don't despair

The Throne of Grace

Is mine to share

It's there I linger

Long into night

The moon's faint glow

My dreams' delight

Away I fly,
the milky way

On moon-fed beams of holy light

I toss my fears away

Among  the stars

On angels wings,
I fly among the splendor
And dine with holy, kindred kings

I must return

Or so it seems

Back down to earth

Go back to dreams

Another night

I'll dream anew

And share again

My dream with you.

Yet, in the day

Awake I stay

It's there I stand alone and pray

For grace to fall across my heart

And take me dreaming, into my art

Heaven's hem
Is oh so near
I dare not touch it
Not yet, I hear

So, here I sit and stand alone
But for a moment, two or three
Until my breath and dream-filled life
Becomes a spirit, whole and free
