The Calling

 

There are moments
When we don’t know what to do
Moments of fear
Moments of unhappiness
Moments of mystery
Moments of misery

In such times
We may call for help
Ask and ask again
And perhaps wait
And perhaps pray

The earth will turn
The sky may darken
The sorrow could deepen
There is a pause
I hear you call
I hear you ask if an angel is there
And see you wait for a reply

And if you carry faith
Just keep it with you
Hold it close to your heart
Like a loving child
The moment of understanding
Arrives… often unexpectedly
Sooner or later

There is something
We call it love
Divine love
It is there
It answers your call
And it will not fail you

And those of us
That carry that certainty
See and understand
That the darkness
Is not forever
They accept that we can
Overcome adversity
We can live to love
And love to live
In peace and harmony
In this most strange and sacred world
