The Throne of Grace

The Throne of Grace

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

The Throne of Grace

 

Lift your eyes, O feeble hearts,

Cast your thoughts high.

For the Lord lifts the soul from the dark

To ever with Him, reside.

 

His heart still listens,

 His eyes still see.

His ears still bend,

And His arms still reach.

 

Kneel down, ev’ry heart,

For the light will shine upon your face.

Bow your sorrows, whatever they are…

At the throne of grace.

 

There’s hope beyond the sky,

Way above the stars,

Way up high…

The Healer of ev’ry scar.

 

Let Him be glorified

In all your troubles and pain.

For the love of God will shine

The throne of grace.

His heart still listens.

I wonder...

I think there is a universal intelligence in all of us, an awareness that is always accessible if we are still and alert. Some call that God.

Well done!

You are welcome Melinda.
'Hope' is something I picked on while reading this poem. In the last stanza too, there is a sign of hope and light you mentioned.
