stay awake

be prepared

for the one

we have longed for

is coming

He shall turn

His face to us

and we

shall be clay

in His potter’s hands

no longer

wanderers

with hardened hearts

we shall hear

what no ear

has ever heard

see what no eye

has ever seen

He will

strengthen us

and give us new life

so that we will

no longer be carried

on the winds of guilt

but always

mindful

of His ways

we will watch

we will be awake

for his coming

Are you awake?

Are you on guard?

Are you prepared for his coming
