To Worship

To Worship 

A presence, an aura where all bowed

Light and darkness hugged, kissed each other

All pay homage as to shine in eternal brightness

In motions, display before unseen eyes to behold

Elments align themselves in matter of approval

Nothing's hidden from view, naked we are

We recognized we were made for this 

Paying obeisance to none but One

Many sacrificed all on the altar of wealth and fame

The latter known by another name 

Vainly, we long in emptiness, for what we were made 

In hope to be elevated, even be admired 

Is this we seek after to become a god

In life we were favored for it, in death we coveted it

Made in image for it, we are at our best when we surrender

We are at our worst when we struggle after it

All around, sounds of animate, even inanimate, greet our ears, testifying

If we don't acknowledge in the sounds of our beating heart

The rocks will cry out as they did, when with tears; poured out in water

Would thirsty, rebellious, wilderness sojourners drink?

Oh foolish, vain hearts, in deception we desire it, even as we turn from our source

The issue at the heart of all matter of flesh and of spirit

In vain we pursue it, only to lack what we desperately need

As was our first breath, our very first act was to just do it
