The End of Night

 

 

From the days of Eden

onward,

We have strayed into darkness

 

Disconnected from the source of light

and the cosmic laws

of love,

We have lost our way from paradise

 

And from the great fall, the human race

has stumbled

on a long and winding road

of suffering

 

A road of wild fermented pain

of tears

and lawlessness;

A cobbled road of loss and weeping

 

But we are not forgotten

my dear ones,

For the Master of the House

has sent

his finest Shepard

 

And he is coming – like the roaring break of Dawn

 

Stiffen thy body and walk

straight,

Into your future deliverance

out of the old Egypt

 

And let the one with tears

listen,

as we embark upon the wilderness

 

For the shadows that entomb

mankind,

are soon to be lifted

 

And the old decrepit veil

of darkness,

is soon to be removed

 

It is near my friend, so near

as now

the unholy darkness, hurls its final volley

 

To distract us,

from

the glorious return – of Day

Your analogy of Egypt was

Your analogy of Egypt was perfect in this call to rise up from our despair and "walk straight" into a future of Light. With a voice of confidence, glory and power, every line climbs Heavenward as you lead us from a "road of wild fermented pain" (Spot on description!) to ultimate victory. 

 

Drenched in comfort and soaring with hope, this message is lifeline, a gift.

darkest before the dawn

 

It’s always darkest before the dawn. I remember my grandmother always saying that. And I do believe it’s true.
