When time has gone

When time has gone

When time has gone
And christians find an honest voice
To sing an honest song
travellers will come again
Guided not by far off signs
but by heart-strong beats
and feet firm-treading ways
more simply laid
then wise travellers
will not leave by night
but find beyond their starry pantheons
true rest, a place to stay
tables spread with every kind of nourishment
of stories shared like wine and bread
blessings of peace given and received
in life’s sweet kiss
of open hospitality

Benediction
Let the wonder
Of Epiphany be;

Less of God
Less of me

And more of thee
Continually
