by Mark Weinrich

Like the soothing sweetness
of a drought-time rain,
we are refreshed 
by lifting His Name,
allowing the burdens of life
through surrender
to be stripped away  

We are carried up,
released in the breath
of life and words that
will not pass or fade.
And bathed
in the light of His love,
time is suspended
in the fragrance of praise.
