The Inner Arms

On the waiting side is peace:

Resting 

On the hoping side is strength:

Believing 

The arms are underneath:

Everlasting 

Standing on that water is life:

Bearing 

Landing on that height is joy:

Being held 

The arms of the embrace above:

Loving me without ceasing  

Forever

Where falling I am found:

Standing 

Where the lilies feed:

Lowered 

The everlasting arms are in me:

Holding me without ceasing

Forever . . .
