TEXT
Ancient Hope
by Susan Grettenberger
Ancient Hope,
We seek to know.
We look to Earth
And find you near.
We see the tree …
Deep roots that ground,
Strong arms that reach.
As seasons change,
Life ebbs and flows.
In all creation
Alpha and Omega soars.
We hear the birds…
Sweet songs they sing
Lift all who hear
They fly away,
Hope echoes still.
In all creation
Alpha and Omega soars.
We feel the breeze…
Soft, warm caress
And heat’s relief.
Wind brings a change,
Yet hope remains.
In all creation
Alpha and Omega soars.
We touch the sky…
Clouds, Moon, and Stars,
Ancient signs so near.
There is room
For mystery here.
