Once ... and Now

Once...
Passions like unbridled beasts stampeded,
Raw emotions tramped unimpeded
In the rampant wilderness of my soul
Existence tumbled on a reckless roll.

My spirit crackled with raging fire
And yet to Heavenly Peace it did aspire
Then soft as snow, light as a drizzle
Your Grace elucidated life's thorny puzzle.

It quelled the demons, exonerated inner gloom
Like a new bud in the flush of virgin bloom
My soul unfolded petal by resurrected petal
In its bosom, You to enthrone and settle

A fabulous jewel encrusted in a golden bowl
You reign supreme in the Soul of my soul
In your divine hands my Life's boat
At Your Will, sink it or keep it afloat.

Now...
My hopes I have pinned amid your stars
My faith blossoms among your flowers
All joys and sorrows drift in the current of your love
My spirit beaming surges, to merge with Yours above.
