Fear like snow falls softly
Covering verdant spring
Stark and chilled
Pharaoh’s drums
Chanting upon the horizon

In silence
The Spirit speaks softly
“Look up”

Cascading
Above the clouds
A piercing music
Eagles flying free
Above our constitutions
Above our consternation

In silence
The eternal Son reaches out to me
“Come”

So, I steady my nerve
Reaching out
I brush against His wound
And the blood that He shed for me
On Calvary
Drips down
Upon the lintel of my soul

In silence
The Father carries me
”Be still”

Exodus 14:13-14: “Do not be afraid. Just be still and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today, you will never see them again. The Lord Himself will fight for you. You only need to be still.”
