Flickering Lights

Flickering Lights

From the outside looking in
A church stands in my view
greeting outsiders with peace
and welcoming lights...
Soft and dim.

From a darkening night
I now stand in delight
As the flickering glow
Silently calls me-
Inside I shall go.

I walk toward the entrance
Not feeling afraid
As God guided me to
A prayerful place
Where hymns are joyously played.

Melodies on strings
Everyone sings
With a candle in each hand
This is where I belong
United with my Christ family
in faith,true light and song.

May God hold each of us
as a candle in His Hand
to guide others still in darkness
to His Sanctuary...His promised land.
